The True Story Behind the New Movie About Watergate and Deep Throat

A new cinematic depiction of Mark Felt, the former associate director of the FBI better known as the informant Deep Throat, is ringing true with at least one person closely familiar with the story.

The film, Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down the White House, details how Felt leaked information about the Watergate scandal that ultimately led President Nixon to resign. And Felt's daughter, Joan Felt, said the movie helped her understand him in a new light.
