About this episode
All The President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 40, I join film critic with bylines at the New York Times, Vulture (and more); editor in chief at Crooked Media and author of Pulp Fiction: The Complete Story of Quentin Tarantino's Masterpiece and It's Okay With Me: Hollywood, The 1970s, and the Return of the Private Eye (and more), Jason Bailey. Jason and I discuss letting Gordon Willis off the leash for this scene, the fact that President's is a terrible background movie and Pakula making a leading man as an everyman with Parallax View and President's . About Jason Bailey Jason Bailey is contributing editor-at-large at Flavorwire, with bylines at The New York Times, Vulture, VICE, Slate, Rolling Stone, and more. He is currently writing his fifth book.
