All the President's Dresses



I love DVD commentaries and this is one of the coolest I've heard in a long time. Robert Redford talks about how he became part of the movie. Apparently he was on a train in Florida, and heard some politicians mention how big the Watergate break-in was going to become. He contacted Woodward & Bernstein before Nixon was out of office. It's easy to misplace movies in history. It's also easy to misplace your decades and sew a dress that's more 1965 than 1974. (The shoes would be adorable in any era.)
