Trivia: General Haig says the line "I'm in charge here." The real Alexander Haig said this in 1981 as Ronald Reagan's Secretary of State, after Reagan had been shot.
Trivia: Fred Dalton Thompson, movie actor and later U.S. Senator from Tennessee, appears in one of the archival clips of the Senate Watergate investigation. He was an attorney with Senate staff before going into acting.
Continuity mistake: In the B&W newsclip scenes, Mr. Hopkins is wearing a prosthesis to make his nose longer, a la Nixon. This appliance was apparently jettisoned for the main shoot.
John Ehrlichman: You got people dying because he didn't make the varsity football team. You got the Constitution hanging by a thread because the old man went to Whittier instead of Yale.
