On Monday, September 9, at 6 p.m., there will be a special film screening featuring live
commentary. Joseph Petrone was the Ambassador to the United Nations appointed by
President Reagan in 1987. After the film, Mr. Petrone’s wife, Augusta Henderson Petrone

From dusty small-town roots, to the glitter of Hollywood, and then on to commanding the world stage, REAGAN is a cinematic journey of overcoming the odds. Told through the voice of Viktor Petrovich, a former KGB agent whose life becomes inextricably linked with Ronald Reagan's when Reagan first caught the Soviets’ attention as an actor in Hollywood, this film offers a perspective as unique as it is captivating. Dennis Quaid brings to life a story that transcends the boundaries of a traditional biopic, offering a profound exploration of the enduring impact of the power of one man who overcame the odds, sustained by the love of a woman who supported him in his journey.
