Episode 725: All the President's Men (1976)

The Projection Booth Podcast

The Projection Booth dives deep into the shadowy corridors of power with Alan J. Pakula's All the President’s Men (1976), a landmark film about the Watergate scandal that brought down a presidency. This special episode, co-hosted by Robert Bellissimo and Andras Jones -- who requested the film for Patreon Request Month -- delves into the gripping story of Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward (Robert Redford) and Carl Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman), as they unravel the conspiracy that reached the highest levels of government.
With a razor-sharp script by William Goldman and Pakula’s masterful direction, the film captures the intensity of investigative journalism and the political paranoia of its time. Join us as we explore the making of this cinematic powerhouse, its relevance today, and the passion behind Redford’s drive to bring this story to the screen.
