First theatrical movie would be "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" in 1966.

(Actually had to do a final exam in Latin on that movie. Loved every second of it.)

I'll go with a somewhat easy one.

What film famously cost less to make than its soundtrack?

So im going to go out on a limb and say all of the actors Ree gave have played a President.

Yep! It was kind of a trick question.

Burgess Meredith played James Madison in a 1946 movie, "Magnificent Doll".
Nigel Hawthorne played Martin Van Buren in "Amistad" in 1997

I don't have a question.

Anyone?

[Chanlin]

I don't know that Burgess Meredith ever played a president real or otherwise though his is the career I'm least familiar with. Not sure on Hawthorne either

So im going to go out on a limb and say all of the actors Ree gave have played a President.

Glover was in 2012
Williams played Teddy Roosevelt
Kingsley was in Dave (became acting president, great movie too)
Hackman in Absolute Power, also a great movie
Billy Bob in Love Actually - an ok movie, my mom really liked it though
Michael Douglas in American President, one of my favorite movies (among many)
Peter Sellers in Dr Strangelove also an awesome movie
