Review: Frost/Nixon (2008)
Excellent remake of the famous Frost/Nixon interviews. I don't think it could have been much better. This is a must watch for any person who loves Biographical movies.
Outstanding performance by both Michael Sheen (David Frost) and Frank Langella (Richard Nixon). The first half of the movie was boring but it gradually pick up momentum into the end.
Famous quote by Richard Nixon
"I'm saying that when president does it That means it's not illegal"
I have not seen the real Frost/Nixon interviews. Some say it's better than the movie.

I think stories of lost crowns lend themselves to drama, but not necessarily audience-pleasing entertainments, which may explain why Frost/Nixon registers as such a soothing, agreeably amusing experience, more palliative than purgative
