The Fourth belongs to all of us. Don't let Trump take that from you. Watch John Adams on HBO. Watch 1776. And remember: You are the heir to that revolution as much as any other American.

Happy 50th anniversary to “All the President’s Men” — a film that owes its existence to Redford, who bought the film rights, developed the script and cajoled a reluctant Woodward & Bernstein. I thought it was “a great character study,” he said later. But, for months, “they didn’t return my calls.”
