Warning: Spoilers
I definitely enjoyed watching this weird movie. It makes you realize how desperate people were in the depression. The people had little problem with a President that would declare marshal law, or with a President that would suspend Congress, or with a President that would send armies of "Federal Police" in tanks to arrest criminals and then summarily execute them by firing squad after a short military tribunal. Lots of surreal scenes in the movie, like the Presidents maniacal drive to Annapolis, and the part when gangsters led by a guy named Nick Diamond do a drive by at the White House. I couldn't quite figure out why the President's nephew was even in the movie. He just sorta disappeared after the first reel.
