All the President's Men*

• 1976 ----- color ----- 139 min ----- dvd
• (Directed by Alan J. Pakula; screenplay by William Goldman based on the book by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward; with Robert Redford, Dustin Hoffman, Jack Warden, Martin Balsam, Hal Holbrook, Jason Robards) In the Watergate Building, lights go on and four burglars are caught in the act. That night triggered revelations that drove a U.S. President from office. Washington reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein grabbed the story and stayed with it through doubts, denials, discouragement. This is their story; it is also the story of a working newspaper, where the mission is to get the story--and to get it right.
