Now that "Deep Throat" has been publicly revealed --- and I'm not talking about Linda Lovelace or the porn movie of that name! --- has anyone here seen the "All The President's Men" (1976), which told the story uncovering the Watergate scandal?

Terrific film. Should be watched in a triple bill with 'Three Days of the Condor' and 'The Parallax View'.

It's very good. Don't really know how much of it is accurate, but definately worth a rent.

Great film! I am sure the word Oscar was bandied about with this film and am sure that they won at least one. You should also read Katherine Graham's autobiography - she was/is the owner of the Washington Post when Watergate broke and was right in the thick of it in terms of her political relationships vs journalistic integrity. She gives a very interesting, relatively objective view of things but as far as she says "All the Presidents Men" is fairly accurate although a couple of the characters at the Washington Post (editors, colleagues etc) were combined for film and, on her insistence, her character was left out. An extremely interesting time in American Politics. Enjoy.

Superb movie.One of the first i bought on DVD.
Redford and Hoffman are excellent in it as are just about every other cast member.

Great film! I had to watch it for a Political Science Class and was worth it!
