The United States Studies Centre has partnered with the crew at the Film Versus Film podcast for a six-part series discussing movies that engage with US electoral politics.
In the second episode, Film Versus Film hosts Craig Anderson, Bruce Isaacs and Herschel Isaacs compare two films that deal with dramatic endings to leaderships. One is about the scandal that brought down US president Richard Nixon, the other is about the events that led to the dismissal of Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam. One won four Oscars and the other three Logies; they are Alan Pakula’s All The President's Men and Kennedy Miller’s TV Series’ The Dismissal.
This special podcast series will culminate in a screening on 4 November of A24's Civil War followed by a special recording of the podcast. Book your tickets now.
