324. Emmy-winner Jeff Greenstein on All The President's Men (1976)

324. Emmy-winner Jeff Greenstein on All The President's Men (1976)

Today we're bringing you the first in a new regular feature on the podcast. Once a month, I'll be joined by a guest from music, movies, politics, literature or more, but not to discuss their favorite album. These will be compelling conversations about their favorite film, or book, or maybe even important world events.
Today, friend of the show, Emmy-winning writer/director Jeff Greenstein (Friends, Will & Grace, Mom, Desperate Housewives) returns to delve into the eerily relevant 1976 Alan J Pakula classic thriller 'All the President's Men', which tells the true story of how Washington Post journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein broke open the incredible Watergate scandal and helped bring down President Richard Nixon.
We talk about the film's commitment to truth and authenticity, the blending of real archival footage with actors playing real people, how Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman compare to the real life Woodward and Bernstein, differences between the book and film, the way Deep Throat has entered the pop culture lexicon, screenwriter William Goldman's contentious relationship to the project, the comparisons and differences to the film 'The Post' and how to make a thriller compelling when everyone in the audience knows the ending.
