The Hasty Hearts of Reagan’s Critics

Ronald Reagan will forever be remembered as the 40th president of the United States, yet his movie career is all but forgotten. The Left’s film and cultural intelligentsia either ignore or mock his acting accomplishments. Political conservatives, often lacking in such cultural curiosity or acumen, tend either not to focus on his acting career or willfully defer to those who minimize it. These approaches to Reagan’s acting career are both wrong and inadequate.
