Hey did you CNN watchers just see the 'Bobby' trailer?

[ChoralScholar]

It's the first I've heard of it... I'm kinda excited.

3. I saw the trailer in a theater recently.

Gotta go see the movie.

4. I was 10, and I remember the moment I heard...

I'm not sure I'd want to sit thru that in a theatre... Maybe on DVD.

And I also remember JFK and MLK. I was just a kid, but I remember every moment.

5. Is Elijah Wood playing Bobby?

I don't know how I feel about that, if true...

I've just gotten whispers that Lindsay Lohan is in this...is she playing Bobby's wife?

Anyone have a synopsis or anything?

7. No, I believe they use actual footage of Robert Kennedy. NT

8. Whew...she's playing "Diane" and he's playing "William".

I'm okay with that, LOL. I just heard a clip of Oprah when Lindsay was on, and she was going on and on about RFK's wife, and I was like...PLEASE don't let her be playing her! So maybe she's just playing Elijah's wife?

Looks like I need to just see it, LOL.

Thanks for the IMDB link.

9. It's not a biopic. It's about FICTIONAL characters who were there in the hotel

to see RFK the night he was assassinated.

[tjdee]

10. Oh, so it's like Crash, with history!

:)

Thanks.

[NYCGirl]

12. Exactly! NT

[ChoralScholar]

11. I still would like to see the historical content. EOM

[NYCGirl]

14. It looks wonderful and has a great cast. A few reviews already at the link:

13. I think it's about the lives of the people staying at the hotel

during the time that RFK was shot.
