Dave (1993)

An uncanny Presidential lookalike named Dave is recruited by the Secret Service to become a momentary stand-in for the President of the United States.

 

No review.  Just a quote from the movie.

 

[singing in the shower]

Dave: Hail to the chief / He's the one we all say "Hail" to. / We all say "Hail" / 'Cause he keeps himself so clean! / He's got the power, / That's why he's in the shower...

 

Nuff said.

 

FUN FACT:  Former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were big fans of this movie. Clinton gave screenwriter Gary Ross a framed copy of the script, which Clinton had autographed, writing that it was a "funny, often accurate lampooning of politics." Clinton also gave Ross a picture of himself holding a "Dave" mug. Obama told Kevin Kline, "I love watching the movie when I'm depressed because you make the job of President look so fun and so easy."
