Summary

Oliver Stone's epic biographical drama traces the rise and fall of Richard Nixon, from his hardscrabble Quaker upbringing in California through his political ascent, presidency, and ultimate disgrace amid the Watergate scandal. Told through fractured flashbacks as a haunted Nixon listens to his own White House tapes, the film probes the private demons, resentments, and ambitions that shaped one of America's most complicated political figures.
