Talk:All the President's Men (film)

message: During the scene where Robert Redford (portraying Bob Woodward) leaves the parking garage, after a fast moving exiting car scares away Deep Throat, Woodward walks away from the parking garage and right through what appears to be the street and sidewalk near the T Street exit of the Washington Hilton Hotel.
While the location of the actual meeting with Deep Throat may be, and probably is, in a different location.  The location of the filming of this event appears to be the same location as the Reagan assassination attempt by John Hinckley, Jr. on March 30, 1981.
If this is correct, perhaps an editor with good knowledge of this location could add a passage about this historical coincidence to the main article.  After all, if the location is the same, then that means that the place where a film was done about the end of one U.S. Presidency was, five years later, the place where another U.S. Presidency almost ended as well.

message: I've removed the name of Mark Felt from the cast, because at the time of the film the identity of Deep Throat was not known to anyone involved in it. Hal Holbrook was not playing Mark Felt but an anonymous informant. Also, it's known that his most famous line "follow the money" was invented for the film and was not part of anything Deep Throat said to Bob Woodward. Sam Blacketer 10:43, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I re-watched this film last night, and wanted to know about its historical accuracy. If there's a historian who could add a section about that, I'd be grateful. It would also be nice if there was a discussion of its cultural significance outside of the world of film; what kind of impact did the film have on the public's perception of Watergate?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.15.240.111 (talk) 13:26, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Historical Accuracy? 

message: Does the title refer to the Humpty Dumpty rhyme from Alice in Wonderland: "And all the king's horses, and all the king's men, couldn't put Humpty together again"? Or what else does it refer to? Thank you, Maikel (talk) 11:23, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know of a secondary source offhand and I haven't tried to research it, but I'd expect the answer to be definitely yes, i.e. the phrase intentionally evokes the nursery rhyme.  I'm pretty sure that the rhyme didn't originate in Alice in Wonderland but was only repeated there.  See Humpty Dumpty.  2601:648:8202:350:0:0:0:94F6 (talk) 00:36, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

message: Article by Ann Hornaday about the film development, attributing a lot to Robert Redford.  Maybe too Redford-centric for neutrality, but still seems like a good additional source for this article.  2601:648:8202:350:0:0:0:94F6 (talk) 00:27, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
