Nixon

Drama192 min

Anthony Hopkins is Richard Nixon, traced from his troubled boyhood in California through his rise to the White House and the Watergate scandal that ended his presidency. Oliver Stone’s portrait follows both the public figure and the private man, tying Cold War politics and 1960s upheaval to Nixon’s ambition, resentment, and deepening isolation. Joan Allen and Powers Boothe are part of the crowded inner circle around him as the film moves through campaign battles, Cabinet rooms, and back-channel power struggles inside the U.S. government.
