Weekend Watch 6/9-6/10

What I’m watching this weekend: Magnificent Doll (1946)- 1 hr 35 mins

Dolley Madison (Ginger Rogers) and David Niven (Aaron Burr).

Dolley Madison (Ginger Rogers) and David Niven (Aaron Burr).

Though quite fictionalized, the film Magnificent Doll is entertaining, especially if you are already a Ginger Rogers fan and are interested in something a little different. The movie focuses on the love life of Dolley Madison (Ginger Rogers). She must decide between Aaron Burr (David Niven), a passionate radical who may threaten the country, and James Madison (Burgess Meredith), a loving man and Founding Father.
