WHAT DO TIGERS DREAM OF, WHEN THEY TAKE THEIR LITTLE TIGER SNOOZE?  It was already set to look like the contemporary It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World of odd cameos, but The Hangover 2 now has added former President Bill Clinton to its cast.  It is, I believe, his film debut, and I don't know quite what to say about it other than calling it to your attention.

  1. I have long said that Bill Clinton is quite possibly the ultimate "get" for SNL as a host (and I could actually see him being pretty funny in the role).

    Per IMDB, Clinton's appeared as himself in a number of documentaries, and appeared in one episode of "Tanner on Tanner" (the "Tanner '88" sequel).

  2. The only fiction film in which he appeared, that I know of, is Contact (archive footage, manipulated).<span> </span>

    So would this be the first time a former U.S. president has shared the screen with fictional characters without the aid of special effects?

  5. Does the TV movie, A Child's Wish (1997, starring John Ritter & Anna Chlumsky & Bill Clinton, as himself), filmed in the Oval Office during his presidency, not count?
