Viewing Notes

Such a great film, one of the best of the 1970’s.  For a film that ‘s basically a procedural and whose characters seem to spend most of the time on the phone, it’s hugely compelling. The pacing is fantastic.  The fact that it’s all true makes it even more amazing (the security guard who discovers the Watergate break-in is played by the actual person). The performances throughout are all excellent.
