RIP Redford: All The President's Men
Cinema Forum Groningen
Nieuwe Markt 1, 9712KN Groningen GroningenIn honour of the recently deceased Robert Redford, we are screening one of his most influential performances, in which he and Dustin Hoffman uncover the Watergate scandal. This compelling political thriller became a milestone in American cinema.
In All the President's Men, we follow young journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of The Washington Post as they unravel one of the biggest political scandals in American history: Watergate. Their tenacious investigation exposes a web of corruption that ultimately leads to the resignation of President Richard Nixon.
The film is not only a compelling political thriller, but also an ode to investigative journalism and the power of a free press. With brilliant performances by Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman and a tightly directed script, the tension remains palpable until the very last minute. A classic that is perhaps more relevant today than ever before.
