All the Presidents Men


Both Ally and I really enjoyed this classic 1976 movie about the unearthing of the Watergate scandal by two investigative journalists - brilliantly acted by Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman. When I was at school, I thought about going into investigative journalism and after watching this movie, I'm glad I didn't. The endless leg-work and phoning around that the two had to do to crack the story was absolutely staggering. I would't have had the tenacity or killer instinct to get even close. The director of the movie does an incredible job of keeping the movie suspenseful and intriguing and as the story progresses, you get more and more involved. Another goodie.
