The Assassination of Richard Nixon

Samuel Byck (Sean Penn ) is a furniture salesman in his forties. He hates deception, and his relationship with his brother broke down because of this. However, his job requires him to learn to lie; in life, he and his wife have been separated for a long time, and he only has the chance to see his three children once a week. Samuel Byck has a black car mechanic friend Bonny Simmons (Don Cheadle). Samuel has always wanted to partner with him in a small door-to-door tire repair business, and the small industrial loan program promised by President Nixon ignited a glimmer of hope for their future. After Samuel submitted the application to the government agency, he began to wait for more than two months. During this period, his wife officially filed for divorce and lost his job. Everything became worse and worse. The failure of the loan dashed his last hope. Samuel stole Bonny's robbery and prepared to hijack a passenger plane and crash it into the White House, killing himself with Nixon. He used this decisive method to draw the world's attention to his existence.
