Frost/Nixon stars Frank Langella as Richard Nixon and Michael Sheen as broadcast journalist David Frost in a dramatic retelling of the landmark interviews three years after Tricky Dick resigned. David Denby at The New Yorker, a self-described Nixon-hater, writes, "One of the virtues of Ron Howard’s adaptation of Peter Morgan’s hit play is that it brings the intelligence back to the forefront without dispelling the elements of menace and fraudulence that were also part of Nixon’s temperament...
"Frost/Nixon offers considerable insight into the Nixon mystery, without solving it; the movie is fully absorbing and even, when Nixon falls into a drunken, resentful rage, exciting, but I can’t escape the feeling that it carries about it an aura of momentousness that isn’t warranted by the events."Click on the images for more on each of this week's releases.






"Does it have to be so witless, so stupid, so openly contemptuous of the very audience it’s supposed to be pandering to?"
i'm afraid garth ennis has ruined the punisher forever.
The irony is that anyone would make a flick about a tv interview that sucked and showed no real insight into Nixon. I know, I watched that crap when it aired and David Frost was supposed to be this big deal that could get the truth out of anybody. Nobody ever got the truth from Tricky.
