Dick

Starring: Kirsten Dunst, Michelle Williams, Dan Hedaya, et al.

Product Description

The year is 1972 and like most high-school students, Betsy Jobs (Kirsten Dunst) and Arlene Lorenzo (Michelle Williams) just want to have a good time. But when, during a class field trip to the White House, they cluelessly wander into a behind-closed-doors, top-secret shredding session, it's time to both wag the dog, and walk it. Seeking to uncover just how much the witless duo discovered, the Commander-In-Chief, appoints them "Official White House Dog Walkers," and it isn't long before the girls go from taking out Checkers, to taking out Tricky Dick, in this fun-raising comedy of historic distortions.

Customer Reviews

An educational movie.

I did not understand what Watergate was all about until I saw this movie. It explains everything from how peace conferences work to hobbies like papier mache to the missing 18 minutes of tape and lots more. To find the more, you need to see the movie. To satisfy those who think "people who like this movie" do not know who the president is, you have to admit it was a toss-up. And maybe you are right, I seem to have forgotten. Oh well, at least I know who one president was due to this movie. And I like the German guy. One of my favorites was the explanation of why the identity of Deep Throat will never be known.
