Frost/Nixon Negative evaluation

2021-12-15 08:01
However, the film was not without its shortcomings. Many viewers felt that the process of the duel between Foster and Nixon in the second half of the film was a bit hasty and thin. The former was too involved in the role of a tabloid reporter, and the interaction between the two parties was only in form. More than fierce, like a fighting battle. The performance of the supporting roles in the film is also unsatisfactory, except for Foster’s side assistants who behaved cleanly, Sam Rockwell and Matthew McFadden did not disappoint, but Rebecca Hall in the film It's completely a big vase, it's really overkill. On Nixon's side, with the exception of Kevin Bacon's excellent supporting role, the other staff did not give any role, and Patricia McCormack did not even have a line.

    Frank Langella's performance moved me. . . This type of film actually made me cry at the end. . .

    Nixon's brilliant performance

Frost/Nixon quotes

  • Bob Zelnick: [Impersonating Nixon, discussing Jack Kennedy] That man, he screwed anything that moved, fixed elections, and took us into Vietnam. And the American people, they loved him for it! Whereas I, Richard Milhous Nixon, worked around the clock in their service, and they hated me! Look. Look. Now I'm sweating. Damn it! Damn it! And Kennedy's so goddamn handsome and blue-eyed! Had women all over him! He screwed anything that moved, and everything. Had a go at Checkers once. The poor little bitch was never the same!

  • Richard Nixon: That's our tragedy, you and I Mr. Frost. No matter how high we get, they still look down at us.

    David Frost: I really don't know what you're talking about.

    Richard Nixon: Yes you do. Now come on. No matter how many awards or column inches are written about you, or how high the elected office is, it's still not enough. We still feel like the little man. The loser. They told us we were a hundred times, the smart asses in college, the high ups. The well-born. The people who's respect we really wanted. Really craved. And isn't that why we work so hard now, why we fight for every inch? Scrambling our way up in undignified fashion. If we're honest for a minute, if we reflect privately, just for a moment, if we allow ourselves a glimpse into that shadowy place we call our soul, isn't that why we're here? Now? The two of us. Looking for a way back into the sun. Into the limelight. Back onto the winner's podium. Because we can feel it slipping away. We were headed, both of us, for the dirt. The place the snobs always told us that we'd end up. Face in the dust, humiliated all the more for having tried. So pitifully hard. Well, to *hell with that*! We're not going to let that happen, either of us. We're going to show those bums, we're going to make 'em choke on our continued success. Our continued headlines! Our continued awards! And power! And glory! We are gonna make those mother fuckers *choke*!
