"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 wow I need to brush up on watergate. I was only vaguely aware of Martha Mitchell and knew nothing of her key role. This short doc truly depicts how outspoken women who speak the truth get gaslighted, labeled as crazy and shut down. I just would’ve liked a more in depth exploration of watergate and Mitchell. "
"Brilliant documentary!! She’s a strong woman who speaks her mind, regardless of what others have to say. It was interesting to learn about watergate from her perspective, as well as how others perceived her. She had admirable traits, loved her country, and I enjoyed learning about her. | Grade: A"
