A capably done account of a presidential career that was wrecked by a crime that was unnecessary.

The result is maudlin beyond belief, especially Nixon's farewell to the aides he's in the process of firing, but other moments simply register as shockingly out of touch.

[A] shrewdly edited collection of news footage and "home movies" taken by members of the Nixon White House staff ...

We get to see film of daughter Tricia's wedding (her father is a surprisingly agile ballroom dancer) and other oddities.

| Original Score: B | Sep 6, 2013

Often plays like a mortifying companion to the Nixon-period sitcom "The Wonder Years."

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 2, 2013

There has never been an uninteresting angle on Richard Nixon - the man was too twisted - but Penny Lane's documentary sees him from several especially compelling new vantages.

[S]hows the precise moment when new image technology would alter power.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 30, 2013

Mundane movies of events like the president's daughter's wedding and his groundbreaking trip to China are juxtaposed with Nixon's rants about his enemies and the "homosexuals" he believed were leading the US into decline.

It's an exploration of the banality of evil that constantly puts banality first, but this is a relatively narrow experimental film designed to supplement rather than replace more thorough histories.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 30, 2013

Our Nixon shows that while the stooges were good at scheming (up until Watergate, at least) they sucked as filmmakers.

| Aug 29, 2013

The results are akin to seeing the Nixon presidency through the eyes of his top aides; it's as much a portrait of innocence lost as a behind-closed-doors expos.

| Original Score: B | Aug 29, 2013

The real takeaway here is a tone of dawning tragedy, sourness sneaking into even the most innocuous of visual records.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 27, 2013

More entertaining curio than revelatory document.

| Aug 27, 2013

Efficient found-footage collage is more evocative than revelatory.

Our Nixon is a love song to a man who knew victories but just couldn't win.

It just feels redundant. Perhaps little or nothing on the home movies lent itself to a richer portrait.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 1, 2013

The retrieved home movie footage creates a lambent prism through which the '70s seem like a simpler time. It also makes Our Nixon a uniquely dynamic time capsule.

| Aug 1, 2013

After two hours, Nixon remains a riveting enigma.

| Aug 1, 2013

A brisk, eye-opening documentary about the Nixon White House, this triumph of editing is composed of homemovies, accompanied by later 온라인카지노추천 interviews and priceless audio from the secret tapes, making it a must-see for anyone interested in Americana.

This highly personal view of the Nixon years is, for obvious reasons, a sad and wrenching one-a film that is nonetheless filled with spirit, humor and a bountiful sense of irony.
