Dick-George, Tenn-Tom ()
Directed by Gideon C. Kennedy, Marcus Rosentrater
Overview
In 1971, President Richard M. Nixon visited Mobile, AL for 104 minutes, during which time he shook 100 feet of hands, lost a cufflink, and shared a stage with his biggest political rival, Governor George Wallace. ‘Dick-George, Tenn-Tom’ is a sardonic look at their rivalry, the creation of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, and the attempt on Wallace’s life less than a year later.
