This film is another excellent biography of Oliver Stone. Unfortunately, he made the mistakes of his previous conspiracy theories. He likes to add his own subjective judgments to complex historical events and characters, and do dramatic processing.

The director's cut is just too long, and it's not as good as the assassination of Kennedy. Halfway through, I suddenly realized that this was a Citizen Kane movie, Watergate was like a rosebud, and then pieced together Nixon's life. Stone's image style is too...

Finished on and off, I was doubly tired of Stone's political biography: too long and too imposed. The so-called imposition, in addition to the iconic material mixing and matching virtual and real alternate shots, but also the neurotic side caused by the shadow of childhood in Hopkins's portrayal of Nixon, whether it is dialogue or meditation, I always feel that this man may sweat at any time. Lazy and pale, he was forced to live next door to Hannibal. But it must be realized that this...

Even though they don't look alike, they act really well
Listen to me, to understand why Nixon and all the scandals since then have been labeled "The Door", watch these 4 movies in this order: The Washington Post? The President's Team? Conversation with Nixon ? "Nixon", quite enjoyable! I feel like I know more about history than my high school textbooks!...

Richard M. Nixon: We let you down, didn't we. Your people.

Richard M. Nixon: Did you cry when he died?

Alexander Haig: I'm afraid we have another problem, Mr. President.
[He hands him a paper. Nixon glances at it]
Alexander Haig: June 23rd, '72, sir. The part that's underlined. Your instructions to Haldeman regarding the CIA and the FBI.
Richard M. Nixon: So?
Alexander Haig: Your lawyers feel it's the..."smoking gun".
Richard M. Nixon: It's totally out of context. I was protecting the national security. I never intended...
Alexander Haig: Sir, the deadline is today.
Richard M. Nixon: Can we get around this, Al?
Alexander Haig: It's the Supreme Court, sir. You don't get around it.
