In the run-up to the 1972 elections, Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward (Robert Redford) covers what seems to be a minor break-in at the Democratic Party National headquarters. He is surprised to find top lawyers already on the defense case, and the discovery of names and addresses of Republican fund organizers on the accused further arouses his suspicions. The editor of the Post is prepared to run with the story and assigns it to Woodward and Carl Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman) who find the trail leading higher and higher in the Republican Party, and eventually to the White House itself.
“It provides the most observant study of working journalists we’re ever likely to see in a feature film… And it succeeds brilliantly in suggesting the mixture of exhilaration, paranoia, self-doubt, and courage that permeated the Washington Post as its two young reporters went after a presidency.” — Roger Ebert
“…a legendary piece of American cinema… watching the film all these years later, its ardent message of persistence is somehow all the more powerful. If Woodward and Bernstein can climb over every wall, turn over every stone and reroute themselves at every dead end, perhaps it’s not too late for some good, old-fashioned salvation.” — Coleman Spilde, Salon
