Frost/Nixon


An exceptional historical piece. Richard Millhous Nixon,37th President of the United States, undoubtedly most famous for the Watergate scandal. In this film by Ron Howard, a british tv show host, David Frost is looking to stretch his broadcasting ability. So anyway, Nixon resigns from Presidency,yadda yadda, when Frost sees the oppurtunity for a controversial interview he takes it. He pays half the cost of the interview by his self. Nixon request 200k just to be on the show. Basically, in the interview at first Nixon is "bodying" Frost with his responses. Then towards the climax Frost starts to "go hard" and he manages to "smash" Nixon. The actor who portrayed Nixon did a good job. I recommend this movie to anyone who doesn't just watch movies with big guns and massive explosions.
