Robert Duvall Western a Hit at Bush White House

[PJay]

AMC's "Broken Trail" was number one in the ratings Sunday night, besting everything on cable and network television. But it wasn't just the American public who loved the Robert Duvall-toplined western - the pic was also a hit with President Bush. The movie's star (and Presidential pal) screened the pic at The White House on June 11 and sources say the President enjoyed it. "He was joking during the screening and in good spirits," says one person in attendance.

Great. Since it was "besting everything" hopefully more will jump on the wagon and make more westerns!

I almost didn't watch it with a title of Broken Trail but Robert Duvall isn't the boy kissin' type.

I wonder if they will re-run it. Would like to see it.

Appears Part 1 airs again July 18th. Unsuccessful with my search when Part 2 would be airing. Strange.

It is a great show and very few commercials.
