Caro Won’t See Broadway Show on LBJ

Biographer Robert Caro told the New York Times that he had no interest in seeing actor Bryan Cranston in his starring role as Lyndon B. Johnson in “All the Way.”

Said Caro: “I have tried for a long time to get fixed in my mind, so that I could describe him accurately, an image of Lyndon Johnson that was as close to reality as possible. I didn’t want to see someone playing Lyndon Johnson or talk to the actor playing him because I was afraid that image would become blurred for me. The better the actor the more danger there would be that that would happen.”
