Truman

Gary Sinise owns the screen with his performance as U.S. president Harry S. Truman. Coming to power in the shadow of the legendary Franklin Roosevelt, Truman survived near-certain defeat in the 1948 election and led the rebuilding of postwar Europe. Sinise perfectly captures the underrated 33rd president's unpretentious style, which concealed a razor-sharp political will. Diana Scarwid keeps pace as Truman's wife.
