Breakdown
Edith Wilson finds herself a woman in a man’s world when she marries President Woodrow Wilson. A circle of congressmen, cabinet members and other Old Boys surround the couple, disapproving in equal measure of their love and their refusal to compromise. When Wilson falls ill, Edith, with effortless ease, maneuvers her way around the White House, outsmarting the men who would derail her beloved Woodrow’s dream of world peace.
CAST: PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON (John Glover), COLONEL EDWARD HOUSE (Stephen Spinella), DR. CARY GRAYSON (Stephen Barker Turner), SECRETARY JOE TUMULTY (Michael McGrath), VICE PRESIDENT MARSHALL (Richmond Hoxie)
