‘The Butler’ vertelt het waargebeurde verhaal van Eugene Allen (Forest Whitaker), een kamerheer die meer dan drie decennia actief is geweest in het Witte Huis. Hij was in dienst van acht verschillende presidenten. Zijn carrière begon in 1952 toen Harry Truman de regerende president was en eindigde uiteindelijk in 1986, ten tijde dat Ronald Reagan president van Amerika was.
Nee, helaas is The Butler nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
