When the two got to talking, they decided to focus the movie on another of Kengor's books instead, "The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism," which was released in 2006 and focused on Reagan's effort to prevent communist expansion in the world. "Reagan," starring Dennis Quaid and Jon Voight, hit theaters in August and has grossed about $30 million while earning poor reviews from most critics. Fox News Digital's Elizabeth Heckman contributed to this report.
The word "inflation" has been uttered more often by the 2024 candidates than "communism." Kengor admits times are "quite different," but the author still sees key similarities between the 2024 and 1980 presidential elections, when Reagan defeated incumbent President Jimmy Carter in a landslide.
