This 1976 movie hooked up the two legends of Redford and Hoffman in this replay of the story of the lowly journalists that uncovered the Watergate affair and brought down Nixon. For a movie that centres around a lot of talking and investigating, it is incredibly absorbing. In part this is because of the great script written by the real journalists involved, but also because of the great on screen charisma of the leading actors. There certainly are very few people in Hollywood today that can hold a screen like these two in their hey-day. It's a classic film, that won 4 Oscars and was nominated for 20, but unfortunately is pretty long and won't be everyone's cup of tea. It's a JM SUCK IT AND SEE.
