I am really looking forward to seeing this movie. It sounds like it is extremely relevant to current events which I find sad but here we are. lol

It was good dramatically and also gets into the history and politics of the situation while dealing with the Nixon administration.
Very worthwhile.

all the presidents men

but i will give it a look

He's never completely convincing when he plays intense, crusty characters. You can always see the niceness underneath.

My then wife's sister married a newspaper heir in 1980. I rode in the limo from the wedding to the reception with her and some other newspaper big wigs ( I had no idea at the time that many newspapers were owned by individuals or families like her and the Hearst's - who were also there but I only shook hands with them). It was a real "club" feeling.

Anyway, I had to bite my tongue to keep from asking "did you get your tits in a wringer?"

At one site, yes there will be a link, it says that Spielberg completed the final cut on the film 4 weeks ago. And the film is being released now. Very unusual. Often there is a long wait.

Here is some information from a Wikepedia link:
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Spielberg read the screenplay and decided to direct the film as immediately as possible, citing that "when I read the first draft of the script, this wasn't something that could wait three years or two years — this was a story I felt we needed to tell today".[17] Spielberg allotted to work on The Post while post-production work continued on the visual effects-heavy Ready Player One, a method he previously used during the concurrent productions of Schindler's List and Jurassic Park.[18] Josh Singer was hired to re-write the screenplay ten weeks before filming.[19] In June 2017, various New York Times figures who were associated with the Pentagon Papers case, including James Greenfield, James Goodale, Allan Siegal and Max Frankel, objected to production plans for the filming of The Post because it does not emphasize the Times' role in breaking the story.[20]

On June 6, 2017 it was announced that the project, retitled The Papers, would feature a cast including Alison Brie, Carrie Coon, David Cross, Bruce Greenwood, Tracy Letts, Bob Odenkirk, Sarah Paulson, Jesse Plemons, Matthew Rhys, Michael Stuhlbarg, Bradley Whitford, and Zach Woods.[21] The film began principal photography in New York on May 30, 2017.[22] On August 25, 2017, the film's title was reverted back to The Post.[23] Spielberg finished the final cut of the film on November 6, 2017, with the final sound mix also completed with the musical score a week later, November 13.[24]
