Summary

When the President of the United States suffers an incapacitating stroke during a clandestine affair, his unscrupulous chief of staff secretly installs Dave Kovic, a kindhearted temp agency owner who happens to be a dead ringer for the commander in chief, as a stand-in. Embracing the role, Dave begins governing with decency and common sense, drawing the suspicions of the estranged First Lady and clashing with the aides who put him in power.

Dave is a 1993 comedy and romance film. Inside comedy it is classed as Satire.
