Donald Trump in Ghosts Can’t Do It



To be fair, I’m not sure the creepiness is primarily Trump’s fault. He was working with John Derek’s screenplay and direction, and it is not unreasonable to argue that Derek was the worst writer/director in history among those who made three or more films in those capacities. He made Ed Wood look like a combination of James Cameron and Scorsese. Trump had to deliver and react to absolutely preposterous dialogue, all while the cameraman was filming everyone in turn with too-close close-ups.

In these circumstances, Daniel Day-Lewis and Tom Hanks would have seemed creepy.

But not AS creepy.

On the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month, the guns fell silent.

The Imperial War Museum has released a recording of the moment the war ended, patched together using recordings from their collections. The artillery activity it illustrates was recorded on the American front near the River Moselle, one minute before and one minute after the war ended.
