Frost/Nixon


Synopsis

When disgraced President Richard Nixon agreed to an interview with jet-setting television personality, David Frost, he thought he’d found the key to saving his tarnished legacy. But, with a name to make and a reputation to overcome, Frost became one of Nixon’s most formidable adversaries and engaged the leader in a charged battle of wits that changed the face of politics forever.

Reviews

Sheen excels again as Frost, an insouciant ladies’ man who in many ways was Nixon’s opposite… Langella and Sheen originated these roles on stage, and it’s impossible to imagine anyone else playing them… Sheen is the perfect foil as Frost, delicate and looking younger than his 38 years
