Left Coast alert: Silver screen siren Scarlett Johansson is pen pals with Democratic nominee Barack Obama. No surprise, since she can be seen in Obama's Yes We Can video. Seems Barack is a "huge movie lover" — well, who isn't? — and loves Johansson's Lost in Translation.
So what are Barack's favorite movies? Well, after a quick Google Search:
Casablanca
The Godfather
The Godfather Part II
Lawrence of Arabia
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
No word on where the films of Scarlett's fiance, Ryan Reynolds, fall on Obama's list. \\\<\/param\>\\<\/param\>\\<\/param\>\\<\/embed\>\<\/object\>
