December 22, 1995

  影片试图从客观的立场出发探讨因水门丑闻而下台的美国总统理查德·米尔豪斯·尼克松的政治生涯。虽然也涉及到他的童年和早期从政的经历,但重点是在水门事件。当影片中一个女学生当面问总统:“为什么你作为总统制止不了越南战争?是不是因为这个制度?”尼克松似有所悟,他对手下人说:“她懂得我花了二十五年时间搞政治才懂得的事情……”

此纪录片讲述了这位内阁成员夫人的故事:由于她在水门事件中发声,尼克松政府为了让她保持沉默而对她进行了心理操控。

"The Most Dangerous Man in America" is the story of what happens when a former Pentagon insider, armed only with his conscience, steadfast determination, and a file cabinet full of classified documents, decides to challenge an "imperial" presidency – answerable to neither Congress, the press, nor the people – in order to help end the Vietnam War.

所有重访总统的人都通过引人入胜的档案画面、令人震惊的椭圆形办公室录音,以及令人信服的新采访,让水门事件栩栩如生,采访了那些使罪行永久化、追查罪行的人和描绘罪行的人。这篇演讲揭示了一个故事,这个故事始于一次“三流盗窃企图”,并升级为美国历史上第一次也是唯一一次总统辞职。一位杰出的演员讲述了这个故事,包括罗伯特·雷德福德、鲍勃·伍德沃德、卡尔·伯恩斯坦、达斯汀·霍夫曼、乔恩·斯图尔特、雷切尔·马多和其他人。
