All The President's Minutes - Minute 133 with Bilge Ebiri

All the President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 133, I join a friend of the show, editor for Vulture and New York Magazine and one of the world's best film critics, Bilge Ebiri. Bilge and I discuss arriving at the final "boss" of the film, the oracular quality that Robards imbues Bradlee, and the revelation of the movie's stakes at the END of the movie.
