I'm begrudgingly giving this one a positive recommendation. My own bias. It's an interesting biopic, but I hate the accents. Not just in the film but, in general, the fake semi-British accent that is employed by some in the Northeast. But, hey, if that doesn't bother you and you do have an interest in FDR's bout with polio, then by all means indulge.
