Hollywood filmmaker
Donald Petrie directs the
comedy Welcome to Mooseport.
Gene Hackman stars as former U.S. President
Monroe "The Eagle" Cole. He's retired to the small New England town of Mooseport, ME, in order to write his memoirs and relax. The retirement is put on hold, however, when he's persuaded to run for mayor of the town. Meanwhile, local hardware store owner and plumber
Handy Harrison (
Ray Romano) is just the sort of plaid-shirted everyman to run against him.
Cole seems a sure win in the race, especially with his loyal personal assistants (
Marcia Gay Harden and
Fred Savage) aiding his every move. The competition gets even more severe when
Handy's sweetheart
Sally (
Maura Tierney) comes between the two men.
Welcome to Mooseport also stars
Christine Baranski and
Rip Torn.
