Well, considering that "Marie" came out in the mid-80's and "JFK" came out in 91, I think I got it right.

The Watergate hearings weren't entertainment. I don't think we can find anyone who would logically argue that point.

Thompson was also Howard Baker's chief of staff during Watergate, and I think that someone could probably argue pretty well that Baker was the most relevant Senator of the past 40 years.

The mention of "JFK" reminds me of some family trivia. Not only was my father in the same Civil Air Patrol unit as Lee Harvey Oswald, but the character that Joe Pesci played (the one with no hair) was a friend of my father's growing up but was kicked out of my grandmother's and great-aunt's houses every time he showed up because neither one could stand him.
