#301 - Oliver Stone's Nixon - WatchThis W/RickRamos

"I am America. I'm a winner who lost every battle, up to and including the war. I am not the American nightmare. I am the American Dream. Period. That's why the system works. Because I am the system. Period."

The Life, Times, & Cinema of Richard Milhous Nixon - 37th President of the United States

On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Mr. Chavez & I finish out our examination of Presidential Politics with a look at The Life & Times of Richard Milhous Nixon. The Vietnam War, The Watergate Scandal, and the subsequent resignation of the 37th president. There's a great deal to talk about and there are numerous parallels to our current political environment. This week we focus on Oliver Stone's Nixon (1995), Alan J. Pakula's All the President's Men (1976), and - finally - Robert Altman's Secret Honor (1984). Three great films that beautifully and powerfully capture the controversy, struggles, and nuances of Richard Nixon.
