All the President's Men (1976)
1976 | Classics, Drama, History
Superior movie that still sets the gold standard for recent-fact-based-drama and heroic-journalists-investigate-corruption movies. Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein are assigned to what looks like just a weird break-in at the Watergate offices of the Democratic party, but discover a trail that ultimately incriminates some very big names indeed.

Proof that you can make a gripping thriller without actually including a single car chase or fist-fight; much of the film is people on the telephone making notes, but it's still a captivating story. Solid performances, decent structure, perhaps lacks a big climax, but you can see its influence on many other acclaimed films since (The Post and Spotlight are cut from the same cloth, and in the former case features some of the same figures). And yet Rocky still won the Oscar. Conspiracy!!!
