Family Theater
The first film to be shown inside the White House was The Birth of a Nation, a racist epic that celebrates the Ku Klux Klan as America's saviors. Woodrow Wilson screened it in 1915 (probably in the second floor Central Hall), in part to repay a political debt to southern supporters, and such choices have tainted his place in American history ever since.
Dwight Eisenhower was obsessed with westerns. White House projectionist Paul Fischer's handwritten log showed he watched more than 200 of them in the course of his two terms. One of his particular favorites was the Gary Cooper film High Noon, but he would watch almost anything about cowboys?except any film starring Robert Mitchum, after the actor was charged with marijuana possession. Fischer said that Ike liked Mitchum films until Mitchum got in trouble with drugs. After that Fischer would sometimes try to sneak Mitchum films in the lineup, but as soon as Ike saw Mitchum was in it, the president would get up and walk out.
Because of his chronic back pain, John Kennedy's aides installed his favorite rocking chair in the middle of the front row. Later on, he had an orthopedic bed set up in the cinema, so he could watch propped up on pillows.
Lyndon Johnson was not much of a film fan. He had one favorite movie and he watched it more than a dozen times, sometimes on consecutive nights. It was a 10-minute homage to himself, sonorously narrated by Gregory Peck and made on the orders of the White House staff to introduce the new president to a skeptical public after Kennedy's assassination.
Richard Nixon saw most of his movies with the same person, his golfing and drinking buddy, Charles "Bebe" Rebozo, who came to the White House theatre 150 times according to Fischer's logs. Their favorites, alongside Patton, were old-fashioned escapist musicals such as the ultra-patriotic Yankee Doodle Dandy, with James Cagney.
Starting with All the President's Men - about the Watergate scandal that ultimately brought him to office?Jimmy Carter held 480 screenings at the White House over four years, one every three nights on average, and more films than Reagan watched in his two terms. The devout Baptist started off insisting that only family films be shown, but eventually relented and became the first president to watch an X-rated film at the family theatre: Midnight Cowboy.

Ronald Reagan watched very few films at the White House. He and Nancy watched most of their movies on their weekends at Camp David, preferring Jimmy Stewart movies, High Noon (the president's favorite), and, on special occasions such as the president's birthday, his own films.
Bill Clinton also loved High Noon, but his taste in movies mirrored the style of his presidency. It ranged from the earnest and complex?Schindler's List and American Beauty were among his favorites?to simple and earthy, like the Naked Gun movies.
George Bush is a fan of the Austin Powers series and has been known to raise his little finger to his lips in imitation of the characters Dr Evil and Mini-Me. Since the September 11 attacks, however, his viewing has become more somber. In early 2002, after the worst of the fighting was over in Afghanistan and plans were being hatched to invade Iraq, President Bush watched more war movies, like We Were Soldiers, about Vietnam, and Ridley Scott's soldier's-eye view of Mogadishu in 1993, Black Hawk Down. In 2006, he screened United 93, about the 9/11 attacks.

7 Fun Facts About the White House Movie Theater
“The best perk in the White House,” Bill Clinton once said, “is not Air Force One or Camp David or anything else. It’s the wonderful movie theater I get here.”
There’s no shortage of amenities at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but perhaps the most culturally significant is the White House Family Theater, which has been playing everything from classic American films to shameless campaign promos since its inception in 1942. To get a feel for the establishment, check out this video about a 50th-anniversary screening of To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) held by the Obamas last year:

1. The First Movie Screened In The White House Was The Birth of a Nation?
Films were being shown in the presidential mansion long before the Family Theater was ever conceived. The Ku Klux Klan’s propaganda masterpiece has the distinction of being the very first shown there, during a special viewing for the Wilson administration in 1915, which the 28th president enthusiastically praised.

2. The Theater Was Originally A Coat Room
Located in the East Wing, the sizable space was converted at FDR’s request during his third term. Since then, it’s been renovated several times,?as you can see in this slideshow:


3. Dwight Eisenhower Issued a Robert Mitchum Boycott Throughout His Presidency
Ike was quite fond of westerns, which were all the rage during the '50s, and took in several dozen of them while in office. But after perennial western star Robert Mitchum was arrested for marijuana possession, Eisenhower refused to watch any movie that gave him so much as a cameo, getting up and exiting the theater every time he spotted the acclaimed actor’s face on screen.??

4. The Last Movie John F. Kennedy Ever Saw Was From Russia With Love
According to most of his staffers, Kennedy rarely sat through an entire film, but seemed to relish the James Bond epic?possibly because the original novel was one of his favorite books?which he took in on November 20, 1963. The next day he left for Dallas, and on November 22, he was assassinated.

5. Lyndon Johnson’s Most-Watched Movie Was A Documentary About Himself
Narrated by Gregory Peck (who later earned a Presidential Medal of Freedom from the Johnson administration), A President’s Country (1966) was a 28 minute documentary focused on LBJ’s childhood and was distributed to American embassies worldwide. Though it was never released commercially in the U.S., Johnson watched it 12 times during his term.

6. Richard Nixon’s Favorite Movie Might Have Directly Affected His Foreign Policy
In addition to being widely regarded as one of the greatest biographical films of all time,?Patton (1970) was a movie about which Nixon could barely stop talking. His ravings became so notorious that not only did Secretary of State William Rogers describe him as a “walking ad” for it, but the president later had to deny allegations that Patton had influenced his decision to invade Cambodia since he’d screened it twice in the days leading to the campaign.

7. Jimmy Carter Holds The Presidential Film-Watching Record
You might think former actor Ronald Reagan would have taken in more films during his administration, but his predecessor managed to squeeze in over twice as many, despite only having one term to work with. Carter watched 480 movies during his stay in the White House, including the controversial Midnight Cowboy (1969), the first X-rated movie to be shown in the Family Theater (though its rating had long-since been changed to R by the time of Carter’s screening).?
