All the Presidents men!

CarlBob

The movie "All the President's men "is a movie about the water gate affair with Nixon and his men. The Water Gate affair was series of scandals involving the administration of President Richard M. Nixon; more specifically, the burglarizing of the Democratic party national headquarters in the Watergate apartment complex in Washington, D.C. This movie includes two reporters that are trying to prove that the scandal is real. They finally figure out that if they follow the money, they can solve the mission.
The reporters for the Washington post were Bob Woodward and Carl Burnstein. They tracked down many people that they thought might be involved in the scandal and they questioned them. The people always seemed to turn the reporters down and shut the door in their faces. But yet, the reporters never gave up. One of the reporters even met with this man that had a really deep voice and they met in a garage at 2am. This guy would tell him if he was in danger and if his leads were right.

The reporters were even bugged after a while so they could not even speak to each other. They had to use the type writer in able to share there reports. They had to live on very little sleep and they had to be very careful what they said because people were always secretly listening. They made a great pair though! They always seemed to go to McDonalds to talk!
The movie was very long and somewhat boring. Everything unfolds in the last 3 or 4 minutes! I was kind of lost for the most part! It was hard to keep my attention on the movie. I do remember that burnstein loveeeedddd to smoke! The End!!!
