Presumably you've looked up some of these by now, and realize how few of them I actually did know. I even mixed up the Kevin Kline President movie with the Michael Douglas President movie.

Mostly I don't know this stuff, because mostly I don't watch many movies, and mostly the ones I do watch have dogs in them, but mostly they never let the dogs play the President, and most two-footed actors look mostly pretty much the same to me.
