Frost / Nixon
Frost / Nixon was an amazing movie. What i don't know is whether its a real event made into a movie or whether it was just a story. This was based on a play that was done and adapted into a movie.
Nixon was a president back in the 70s that was caught donig something illegal and left the office (true story). However, Ford (the next president) gave him a pardon so Nixon never went on trial on what he did wrong.
Frost was an australian british talk show guy that thought big and went for an interview with Nixon. That's was the movie. Frost was inexperienced so there were a few challengers and the interview were obviously the climax of the movie.
the movie was great overall, the designs, the back drop, the costumes, hairstyles, both actors (esp, the guy that played Nixon), however, i would have like it more if they covered more on what happened at 'Watergate' history part of the story and most importantly, the ending was a little weird after Nixon's phone call.
Anyhoo, interesting movie but i doubt people will watch it.
