If you want to see the real Richard Nixon, rent Dick, starring Dan Hedaya as Nixon! For some reason, this is one of the movies my father likes to cite as a "good movie". I think this is a symptom of the true rarity of quality movies for adults. Too many films are geared towards 17-year-old boys, so when a quality drama is made for adults, my father takes notice.
