"Nixon"

The 1995 biopic "Nixon" calls itself "an attempt to understand the truth." Just prior to its release, the family of the late president issued a statement calling parts of the movie "reprehensible," and accusing the filmmakers of seeking to solely and maliciously "defame and degrade President and Mrs. Nixon's memories in the mind of the American public." Anthony Hopkins and Joan Allen portrayed the first couple.
