Do You Remember Your First Time?

Carl Bernstein is the investigative journalist who, with Bob Woodward, broke the story on the Watergate scandal that ultimately caused the downfall of Richard Nixon.  Their anonymous source for the story was named Deep Throat.  Bernstein remembers the first time he saw the movie:

The Nixon Reelection Committee had sent out subpoena servers to haul us into court to try to get at our sources.  So Woodward wasn't there that day.  And somebody knew that the subpoena server had arrived downstairs with these court papers with my name on them and said, Bernstein, get out of here, go disappear for a couple hours.  And so I went and watched the movie Deep Throat. I mean everybody was talking about. . . about this movie.  I had a couple hours to kill.  It was showing right down the street, on 15th Street. I was thinking more about the subpoena than I (laughs) was thinking about the movie.  The movie was pretty. . . .  Well, you didn't have to think a lot to watch the movie.  I could do both at once.
