Frost/Nixon

Nominee Image for Frost/Nixon

Nomination:

  • Best Documentary Short

In 1974, Richard Nixon made history by resigning the office of the Presidency, evading trial and conviction for crimes committed while in office. Three years later, charismatic British talk show host David Frost convinced Nixon to do a televised interview. This film dramatizes the conflict between two famous egos: a disgraced President hoping to stage a comeback by outfoxing a journalistic lightweight, and an ambitious celebrity hoping to make his mark by giving Nixon the trial he never had.

    To the ADHD , Beyonce,Corporate-lobotomy generation I doubt this movie will even sink in. But for those who lived thru this time it hits like a bomb. Tense, terse, and on the high wire, it crackles and pops . And, of course, it loses to the next Flash in the pan.

    I couldn't stop watching, and frankly I thought I'd be bored. Interesting flick. Great performances.

    AWESOME movie, but, and keep in mind that I'm not a critic, I didn't think it was Oscar-worthy :( Still, I'm glad it's being recognized, because it is an amazing film and I highly reccomend everyone go see it!
