Barack Obama lists these movies as his favorites on Facebook
Casablanca, Godfather I & II, Lawrence of Arabia and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Casablanca is my all-time favorite movie, but very few people know that Barack is a secret admirer of ZULU, a 60s film about the battle between a small detachment of British solders and Zulu impis at Rourke's Drift in Natal.
Not for the battles.
But for the opening scene with the naked girls.
Of course no one running for president can admit that, so he picked the GODFATHER instead.
Personally I was pulling for the Zulus, then again I'm Irish.
