Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “I’m going with one of my favorite journalist movies – All The President’s Men. The movie was an absolutely fantastic piece of filmaking, based on an excellent piece of journalism.” Blaine says, “I haven’t seen a lot from this week, and don’t want to recommend the Doctor Who special outside the full season set, so I’m going to take a pass. Must see titles for me includes All The President’s Men and Waiting for “Superman”, though.”
