Dave is a comedy film released in 1993, directed by Ivan Reitman and starring Kevin Kline, Sigourney Weaver, and Frank Langella. The movie is about a temporary employment agency operator named Dave Kovic who is recruited by the Secret Service to become a stand-in for President Bill Mitchell due to his uncanny resemblance to the leader. When the President suffers a stroke, Dave is asked to continue impersonating him, but he soon discovers that the Chief of Staff Bob Alexander is using him for nefarious purposes. As Dave navigates his new role, he must balance his loyalty to the President and his growing feelings for First Lady Ellen Mitchell, all while trying to expose Bob's scheme and restore funding for a homeless shelter. The film features a talented supporting cast, including Charles Grodin, Daryl Mitchell, and Ben Kingsley, and received positive reviews for its witty dialogue, charming performances, and timely political satire.
