  • Commentary Track: All the President’s Men
    Apr 13 2026
    For our latest commentary track we mark the 50th anniversary of All the President’s Men, revisiting Alan J. Pakula’s classic 1976 thriller. Listen separately or watch along as we talk through the film’s meticulous reporting, Redford and Hoffman’s iconic pairing, and how a story built on phone calls and note-taking still manages to feel like one of the most gripping movies ever made, with plenty of behind-the-scenes stories and digressions along the way.
