This is just a stunning film. It builds without special effects or a booming soundtrack and loud noises. Better than that it is a true story about a couple of heros. It's hard to believe in 2007 when news reporters and newspapers were so important and independent, that they could bring down an entire presidency but it happened. I doubt with corporate ownership and the lack of readership for newspapers in general if it could ever happen again. Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman are in top form as Woodward and Bernstein, two young reporters with nothing to lose and everything to lose at the same time. They have the balls to pursue an unpromising news story and lead it directly to the White House. Very exciting and moving. Where are our hero reporters now a days?
