Overview

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia · Read full article · Text CC BY-SA 4.0

Dick is a 1999 alternate history comedy film directed by Andrew Fleming, co-written by Fleming and Sheryl Longin, and starring Kirsten Dunst, Michelle Williams, and Dan Hedaya. It portrays a comic reimagining of the Watergate scandal which ended the presidency of Richard Nixon, in which two warm-hearted but unworldly 15-year-old friends, who—through various arbitrary circumstances—become the legendary "Deep Throat" figure who played a key role in bringing down the presidency of Nixon. At the time of the film's release, the real identity of Deep Throat was not yet known to the public.
