my notes: 

1/ The actress matches well from the young to the elder version. 

2/ Ted likes Ted in other movies.

Eleanor and Franklin (1976) is a mini-series broadcast on ABC on January 11, 1976, starring Edward Herrmann as Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) and Jane Alexander as Eleanor Roosevelt. It was based on the 1971 Pulitzer Prize-winning and best-selling biography by Eleanor's personal secretary Joseph P. Lash. The film relates their lives in flashback from the perspective of the the newly-widowed Eleanor (in 1945), who recalls - the time they were children as cousins who met briefly - their courtship and marriage - bearing and raising a large family - her social efforts as he rises to Assistant Secretary of the Navy in World War I - his hidden affair with Lucy Mercer - her help and encourgement with his famous bout with the affliction of polio - her campaigning with Louis Howe, their mentor, crony and campaign manager during her husband’s runs for political offices in the New York state legislature - his unsuccessful effort for Vice President in 1920 - his election as Governor of New York and his rivalry with the failed candidate for the presidency in 1928, Al Smith - his election to the Presidency in 1932 during the "Great Depression". Part two, about FDR's years in the White House and World War II, is here:    • Eleanor and Franklin part 2: The Whit...   More movies about American presidents:    • American Presidents movies

Brilliant performances by Jane Alexander and Edward Herrmann. Beautiful score by John Barry, too.

My heart ?? goes out to Elenor Roosevelt at 2:11:43 of this mini series. Imagine your best friend and confidant, Lucy Mercer (her own social secretary), doing the horizontal mombo and other hanky-panky under your very nose. She is insecure about her feelings about herself since birth. Now to have your closest friend doing it with your husband talk about a gut punch that would leave anybody crying ???? and screaming like she is doing. 
Her teacher was the first person to really see the greatness and Envision in her life.. She saw that she was anointed.. [????] [????] [????] [????] To do great works for God and her country.
