White House Madness

Mark L. Lester's Outrageous Watergate Comedy


This hilarious, off-beat cult film made headlines a few years ago, when it was revealed that Republican presidential hopeful- Texas Senator Phil Gramm- was an investor in the scandalous satire directed by Mark L. Lester. In 1974, Gramm invested $7,500 in what he thought was an R-rated spoof of beauty contests, Beauty Queens. But that movie was never made. Instead the money was rolled over into White House Madness.
