There is a new trailer for history movie and it is for Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down the White House.
We all know that Liam Neeson is a badass, and this time he is an FBI Associate Director who brought down Richard Nixon. Neeson will not use weapons, but his best skill, a voice. He will be portraited Mark Felt, who was suspect to be the Deep Throat, an informant who provided information to Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of The Washington Post. Only in 2005, he admitted that he was Deep Troat, and wrote a book about that. Universal pictures and Tom Hank’s immediately bought rights for a movie, but it took them 12 years for the movie; probably they were waiting for the first president that is in a quarrel with FBI.
What about History
It took almost 2 years from the start of Watergate scandal to Nixon’s resignations so we don’t have high hopes in historical accuracy. Hollywood is always looking for drama and to cut out paperwork, letters, long and boring conversations. It is certain that history will suffer in the movie. To this point, it is controversial why Mark Felt become the informant, who later got a nickname based on a famous character from a porn movie.
Doubtless is that the movie will show us the one and only reason; for America (and freedom of course). Once again; the movie makers probably trying to show us that they are calling for a hero we all need and deserves (and who can make the president resign).
Diana Lane plays Felt’s wife, and Maika Monroe plays their daughter. Actor Julian Morris is in the role of Bob Woodward. The role previously portrayed by Robert Redford in All The President’s Men. It is unclear who is playing Carl Bernstein. The movie starts in theatres on September 29th.
