Profile of Dick

The mood of Dick is clever, witty, and humorous. The plot centers around campaign, a political conspiracy, and a head of state. It features farce and irreverent humor. Dick is a comedy movie. In approach, it is not serious and realistic. It takes place, at least partly, at a high school. Dick is set in Washington DC. It happens during the Vietnam War. Note that it includes drugs/alcohol and profanity.

Summary of Dick

Arlene (Michelle Williams) and Betsy (Kirsten Dunst) wander away from their tour group while visiting the White House and stumble upon one of Nixon's infamous top-secret document shredding sessions. Seeking to uncover how much the two girls have discovered, Nixon appoints them "Official White House Dog Walkers" but it's not long before the ditzy duo go from taking out Checkers to taking on "Tricky Dick" in this fun, WAG THE DOG-meets-CLUELESS political send-up. Dan Hedaya (CLUELESS) stars as Richard Nixon.

This is an underappreciated gem that wasn't able to find its audience. The supporting cast is first rate-- Harry Shearer as G. Gordon Liddy and Dan Hedaya's great Nixon impersonation are special highlights, as is Will Ferrell's before-he-was-Will... Read and rate it
