I just watched this. Had a few popular names in Kirsten Dunst, Dan Hedaya, and Will Ferrell. It was actually pretty funny, as long as you understand all of the little jokes throughout the movie. I’d probably label it as one of those movies that you come across on a lazy Saturday afternoon and say to yourself “what the heck is this”, and then you end up watching the entire thing.

Badabing, I heart you!!

I absolutely LOVE this movie. I loved learning about Watergate and so this movie was just a fun extenstion of that. Will Farell is hilarious in this movie.

Two of my favorite lines are:

"You smell like cabbage!!"

and

"How old are you?"
"15"
"Is that you combined ages?"

Also, when they are near the monuments, Kirsten Dunst's character says "You can't let your life revolve around Dick!" (not sure if thats the exact quote, but it's near it)

Funnnyyyyyyy stuff. I love fun movies like this - I might have to go watch this puppy today!

I have always wanted to watch this, but never got around to it. I also have always wanted to watch Nixon, but never have.

Might as well add this one to the BBster queue.

Watch Nixon first. That way all of the "facts" will be fresh in your mind for the jokes of Dick.

Yeah, the “cabbage” line was freak’n hilarious. I always research movies on IMDB after I watch them and I saw this in the trivia section:

Will Ferrell tells Bruce McCulloch he "smells like cabbage," a reference to one of McCulloch's most famous characters on "The Kids In The Hall"

I used to watch Kids In The Hall sometimes, but I didn’t happen to catch this one.

If you can call a Ollie Stone movie's plot points "facts." :D

he played a guy with a cabbage as a head. he was a total dick who blamed everything anyone said on the fact that he had a cabbage for a head. it was really funny.

It bugs me that the names are transposed with the people in this picture......

Come on now, it doesn’t matter, nobody knew either of these chicks when this movie came out.
