Clinton-Blair years focus of HBO drama

Dennis Quaid and Hope Davis, starring as Bill and Hillary Clinton in a new HBO film, have a civilised difference of opinion about a Monica Lewinsky-driven quarrel that was edited out.

Quaid thinks the clash should have remained in The Special Relationship, which focuses on Bill Clinton and then-British prime minister Tony Blair. Davis is relieved it was cut from the movie which debuts this weekend in the US.
