Synopses & Reviews
In the Watergate Building, lights go on and four burglars are caught in the act. That night triggered revelations that drive a U.S. President from office. Washington reporters Bob Woodward (Robert Redford) and Carl Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman) grabbed the story and stayed with it through doubts, denials and discouragement.
All the President's Men is their story.
Directed by Alan J. Pakula and based on the Woodward/Bernstein book, the film won four 1976 Academy Awards (Best Supporting Actor/Jason Robards, Adaptation Screenplay/William Goldman, Art Direction and Sound). It also explores a working newspaper, where the mission is to get the story and get it right.
Review
"[T]he most observant study of working journalists we're ever likely to see in a feature film....[D]irector Alan J. Pakula has done a remarkable job of keeping the pace taut." Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Review
"All the President's Men transcends quaintness (look, Ma, they're using typewriters and rotary phones!) to achieve timelessness....At two-plus hours, the movie zips right along. (Grade: A-)" Entertainment Weekly
