In the film, Nixon's speech when he left after Watergate:
"There are many good professions, and this country needs good farmers, good businessmen, good plumbers, good carpenters...
I remember my father, I think People might think he's a little guy, a normal guy, but he doesn't think so himself. Do you know who he is? He was a bus driver, then a farmer, and then he had a lemon grove, I can tell you , that was the poorest lemon grove in California, he sold it before anyone else found it there, and then, he ran a department store, but he was a great man because he took his job seriously, he took it seriously Every job.
Maybe no one's going to write a book for my mother, but I think you all would say that about my mother, my mother was a saint, she watched two children with tuberculosis, and then watched them Die and watch them die. Yes, no one's going to write a book about her, but she's a saint.
As we face the future, I'm reminded of something Roosevelt wrote when he first his wife had just passed away and he was only in his 20s and he felt the light of life was gone forever but he moved on and not only became president but still served his country after leaving office and he was always there In the arena, always so brave and strong, although he was right and wrong, but he was always a man. When I left, I think we should remember his example.

We sometimes think that things are not Going in the right direction, especially when our loved ones
pass away, lose the campaign... we're beaten, and we feel like it's over, it's not right.
It's always just the beginning, because greatness exists, it's not Because you are always smooth sailing, when greatness comes, when you can withstand his test, can not be beaten, can not be afraid of disappointment, can forget the sadness. Only when you have been to the deepest canyon can you appreciate its splendor, the highest Mountains.
So I take this opportunity to tell you that we're gone, proud to support our people, proud to have worked for us, for this government, for our country, and we hope you will continue to serve this government.
Remember , give your best, never get discouraged, never give up.
Remember, others may hate you, but they will not succeed unless you hate them too. But if you do, you destroy yourself too.
We left with high hope and spirit, and with deep shame. I want to say to each of you that not only will we always remember you, but you will always be in our hearts, and we will pray deeply for you. Only then will you experience what we believers call inner peace. At the

end of the film, the subtitles introduce:
On April 26, 1994, when Nixon was buried, five presidents attended the funeral.
He later wrote six books. As an old politician, he traveled all over the world.

    Stone, who created the blowout period, is really speechless. The style of clipping like the wind and using 20 different ins filters in a row has been directly carried over from the natural born killer to here, although it does give people chaos and excessive force. I feel, but I have to sigh that this kind of controversial character should be filmed by him. From time to time, he will give some golden sentences to fill in some private goods, and make some conspiracy theories. Whether it is credible in a political movie is a matter of fact, and the effect is really not small. God Hopkins acting!

    This Nixon had the same strong mother and childhood shadow as Alexander the Great....Stone shoots and shoots is a story.

Nixon quotes

  • Presidential Lawyer St. Clair: Sir, don't you think all these deletion marks in the transcripts make it look as though you do nothing but swear?

  • [Nixon awkwardly puts his arm around John Dean, his legal counsel]

    Richard M. Nixon: John, I want you to get away from this madhouse, these reporters, and go up to Camp David for the weekend. And I want you to write up a report. I want you to put everything you know about Watergate in there.

    John Dean: You want me to put it all in writing. Over my signature.

    Richard M. Nixon: Well, nobody knows more about this thing than you do, John. The details, that stuff, I don't know about.

    [a pause]

    John Dean: Sir, I'm not going to be the scapegoat for this. Haldeman and Ehrlichman are in just as deep as me.
