Frost/Nixon

Frost/Nixon begins with some 1974 newsreels of the Watergate incident and Nixon's resignation, then switches to a few years later to Frost (Michael Sheen), whose talk show was canceled in the United States, and he is now presenting it in Australia.

This does not please him. He enjoyed being popular in New York. He used to be the only one who could get a booth at Sardi's, but now, his career is winding down. He needs to make a strategy right away. But when Frost initially suggests an interview with Nixon to his producer, John (by Matthew Macfadyen), John thinks that idea is funny. John chuckles and says, "But you're a talk show host! I saw you meeting the Bee Gees." Frost hopes that, one day, he will be deemed intelligent enough to host an interview with Nixon by proving that he is not a shallow idiot.

In any case, Frost/Nixon is a magnificent picture that is actually captivating and engrossing, and you don't find many like it for a pound these days. So watch it right away!
