      Nixon and Lace-Up Italian Leather Shoes



      In recent days, I have been recommending the movie "Foster Conversations with Nixon", which I think is a movie comparable to "The Queen".
      About this movie, the introduction of Tumo is like this:
      This is a movie about two men. One is Nixon, needless to say. The second is David Frost, who was originally a British entertainment variety show host, Playboy. When Nixon resigned, Frost, on a whim, decided to do a TV interview with Nixon and offered to pay $500,000 for it ($500,000...

      "Conversation with Nixon" - Slap Bush Jr. with Nixon

      Before Bush Jr. left office, American director Ron Howard used a "Conversation with Nixon" to "borrow the past and satirize the present". Nixon, played by Frank Langella, is a three-pointed, domineering former president, who has gradually become a "citizen president" who repents to the public under the perseverance of talk show host Foster. This sea change seems incredible, as the film says: a TV show has done what prosecutors, the media couldn't have done.
          When Nixon finally admitted...

      Commentary on Dialogue with Nixon

      It is conceivable that at the age of 30, I insisted on watching this movie despite the difficulties in the early morning.

         Nixon's conceited appearance, and the final contrast to his own lost expression.

         Maybe it's cultural or political, and I'm having a hard time watching some of it. I didn't think there was anything special about Fortes, just his confidence and the phone Nixon called him that night. Yes, it was the call that made him revisit the interview. He thought...

      Listen to the Ming Dynasty--I will be a porter back and forth

      After watching this film, my mind kept tumbling. Although the film has already ended, it is more like "let's listen to the next decomposition" to me.

          As written in some film reviews, the Watergate scandal is one of the most iconic success stories in the American journalism industry. I believe that in the relevant film reviews, everyone has fully understood the Watergate scandal and the role of the media, and so do I. But what I care most about is not what happened to the Watergate...

      Bush/Nixon

      Another movie that hit the Oscar throne, I thought it was very political, but it turned out to be a battle of wisdom and courage. Director Ron Holder has completed a perfect big screen transformation. What we see is not a drama, but a compact and coherent film.

        The story tells that Nixon stepped down after the Watergate incident in 1977, but he never admitted his mistakes to the public and owed the American people an apology. British Talk Show Host Foster embarked on the great...

    Movie plot

    After taking the blame and resigning from the White House, Nixon has remained silent in front of the public and the media. He has not made any comments on the Watergate incident or expressed any repentance. After three years of this, in the summer of 1977, the president with great vision finally agreed to sit in the studio and talk about what happened during his presidency: the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and...

    Negative evaluation

    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...
