Factual error: At many points, particularly when Nixon has resigned, the soldiers around the White House are using modern M16A2 rifles, which I don't think the US military used until the 1980's.
Dick (1999)
Plot summary
Directed by: Andrew Fleming
Starring: Dan Hedaya, Kirsten Dunst, Michelle Williams, Will Ferrell
Genres: Comedy
The year is 1972, and like most high-school students Betsy Jobs (Kirsten Dunst) and her friend Arlene Lorenzo (Michelle Williams) just want to have a good time. But when, during a class field trip to the White House, they cluelessly wander into a behind-closed-doors, top-secret shredding session, it's time to both wag the dog, and walk it.
Seeking to uncover just how much the witless duo has discovered, the Commander-In-Chief, appoints them "Official White House Dog Walkers", and it isn't long before the girls go from taking Checkers, the dog, out for walks, to taking out Tricky Dick, himself.

Betsy Jobs: You kicked Checkers, you're prejudiced and you have a potty mouth.
Trivia: When the girls dash out onto the roof to display their banner, Michelle Williams appears to have a poorly camouflaged tattoo on her lower back.
