The story of James Garfield, who rose from obscurity to become America's 20th President — and Charles Guiteau, the man who assassinated him.

Looking forward to this.

Intended to read the book by Candice Millard that this was based on but didn't get to it, guess I'll read it after instead.

Damn, could be really good but Netflix AI writing will probably have me bored

Edit: I have been hoodwinked many many times with Netflix movies and have no optimism left

It’s a really solid book. I didn’t know anything about this ordeal. And then it leads to Chester Arthur being president who did not want it at all

Garfield was tortured ( not on purpose ) by the doctors as they tried to find the bullet using a very early beta model of an x-ray. They’re just probing all around in his body to find the bullet. I can’t imagine how painful that was

This looks like it will be interesting,
