Hoezo in KINO

 “I never asked about Watergate. I simply asked what were Hunt’s duties at the White House. They volunteered he was innocent when nobody asked if he was guilty.” The original investigative procedural that inspired the likes of Zodiac, The Post and Spotlight excitingly captures the process of tenacious journalists Bob Woodward (Redford) and Carl Bernstein (Hoffman) bringing Tricky Dick Nixon’s administration to its knees. Redford was instrumental in gaining the trust of The Washington Post to tell their story right and with the two biggest actors of that decade headlining and the very competent direction of Alan J. Pakula (Klute, The Parallax View) this meticulous procedural became a sensation at the time and endures as one of the best films of the 1970’s. English language without subtitles.
