🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its argument meticulously, relying on a devastating trove of archival footage to chart the brutal character assassination of a key Watergate figure. It explores the gendered weaponization of 'hysteria' as a political tool with chilling clarity.
What lingers after the credits is the profound cost of speaking truth to power. The documentary serves as a crucial correction to the historical record. — MovieFinder Editorial
