''Eleanor and Franklin'' (1976) is a television movie released on January 11, 1976, starring Edward Herrmann as Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) and Jane Alexander as Eleanor Roosevelt. It is the first part in a two-part biopic based on Joseph P. Lash's Pulitzer Prize-winning and best-selling biography with the same title. Joseph Lash was Eleanor's personal secretary and confidant. He wrote several books on the Roosevelts including some on both Eleanor and Franklin individually. Directed by Daniel Petrie, the film follows the lives of President Roosevelt and his wife Eleanor told in flashback from her perspective after her husband's death, from the time they were children until his election to the presidency. A second film, ''Eleanor and Franklin: The White House Years'' (1977), was made which detailed Roosevelt's term as president. The film won numerous awards, including 11 Primetime Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and the Peabody Award. Daniel Petrie won for Director of the Year – Special, as he would again the next year with ''The White House Years''. The film is noted for being almost entirely historically accurate. ==Cast== * Edward Herrmann — Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) * Jane Alexander — Eleanor Roosevelt * Rosemary Murphy — Sara Delano Roosevelt, FDR's mother * Pamela Franklin — Anna Hall Roosevelt, Eleanor's mother * David Huffman — Elliott Roosevelt I, Eleanor's father * Irene Tedrow — Mary Ludlow Hall, Eleanor's grandmother who raised her * John Burnett — Hall Roosevelt, Eleanor's brother and nephew to Theodore Roosevelt * Linda Kelsey — Lucy Mercer, FDR's mistress * William Phipps — Theodore Roosevelt, Uncle to Eleanor, 5th cousin once removed of FDR and 26th President of the United States * Linda Purl — Alice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of Teddy, Eleanor's 1st cousin * Devon Ericson — Corinne Robinson, Teddy's niece and 1st cousin to Eleanor and Alice * Teresa Steenhoek — Anna Roosevelt Halsted, FDR's daughter * Lilia Skala — Marie Souvestre, Teacher, mentor, close friend of Eleanor's from Allenswood * Ed Flanders — Louis Howe, intimate friend and political advisor to FDR and Eleanor * Arthur Adams — Arthur Prettyman, FDR's personal valet * Helen Kleeb — Margaret Daisy Suckley, neighbor, friend, 6th cousin of FDR * Peggy McCay — Grace Tully, private secretary of FDR * Anna Lee — Laura Delano, FDR's cousin at the Little White House when he passed * Harry Holcombe — Steve Early, political advisor to FDR and future White House Press Secretary * Ned Wilson — Endicott Peabody, FDR's headmaster at Groton's School for Boys and officiated his wedding * Len Wayland — Admiral Ross McIntire, FDR's personal doctor * Lindsay Crouse — Marjorie Bennett, Eleanor's roommate at Allenswood * Edward Winter — Joe McCall, reporter on funeral train with Eleanor * Mackenzie Phillips — Eleanor, age 14 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eleanor and Franklin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
