All The President's Men (1976) | Ep. 21 - Part 1

The film recreated the Washington Post newsroom so precisely that it had real Post rubbish shipped across the country to fill the bins. Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story.

In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Alan J. Pakula, the cast, and the second act — including Redford and Hoffman as Woodward and Bernstein, and the dread Pakula wrings out of phone calls and paperwork.

The investigation's far from filed. Part 2, covering the crew, the finale, reception, and the film's legacy, is available now.
