Frost/Nixon



This movie about the David Frost and Richard Nixon interiews is truly a masterpiece of American cinema. Richard Nixon is commonly characterized as a villian in United States. He is blamed for the biggest crime and the biggest cover-up in American History. Throughout the film Nixon is humanized and the audience sees his true character and his mortality. Frank Langella does a wonderful job of portraying the late president. His voice, body language, and personality in the movie are exactly what an average person imagines Richard Nixon to be like. The dynamic between Langella and Michael Sheen (David Frost) are amazing and all the characters are extremely well done. The cinematography only adds to this amazing film. This is an absolute must see movie that will spark the interest of everyone from the avid politician to the Joe Six-Pack.

Overall Grade: A
