Thus one of the most enjoyable episodes in the film is Woodward's midnight phone call to John Mitchell, in which the former attorney general threatens to "put Katie Graham's teat through a wringer" if they print their story. Yet the men responsible for Watergate and the cover-up come off as frightened men making ludicrous mistakes rather than the kind of people who seriously threatened to warp this country's government out of shape. There is no counter-balance...
