Competition without gunpowder

Mr. Frost is a gambler and adventurer. This conversation is just the product of his whims, the focus, sensation, and famous personality motivation that modern journalism brings to journalists. However, the pressure on him from the reality is staggering. The refusal of major news organizations, the numerous obstacles to fundraising, the objections of team members, and so on. However, the ignorant is fearless, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and it is his initial psychological state to be desperate. The timing of these backgrounds unfolds, making people aware of the possible cost of his present-day show, and can't help but feel sympathy for him. This is the beginning of the audience's emotional and attention input.

However this is just the beginning. When his opponent appeared, and after the first round of the contest, people took a breath of relief at him. A talk show host, and a dialogue with a top political figure, is really a rabbit. He was toyed between the palms of his hands by Boss Ni's Tai Chi push hands, and he was lifeless. And the boss of Nigeria just took a fancy to this advantage, delusional use of this interview to gain a little public sympathy and political change. The interpersonal wisdom embodied in the multi-layered confrontation here is truly convincing.

However, Frost is what people call a dead end hero. Under the accusations of his partners and the loss of business opportunities, his birthday can be said to be bleak. Boss Ni's outrageous challenge (perhaps Frost's hallucination) was the last straw on the camel's back and woke him up. You're not driving a crazy car, you're fighting a life-and-death battle. This battle was provoked by Mr. Frost. He and Xu didn't care about any idealism, ideology, and moral values. However, the course of the matter made him realize that this was an unwarranted use of each other's fiasco to gain capital. fighting and competition. Just like the sloppy look of Mr. Ni in the sloppy eyes of deliberately sentimental recollection, and the look of loss when he suddenly realizes that he has no chance in the vain and arrogant selling of political terminology, it was not expected by both parties in advance.

The whole film invests all the main resources in this ups and downs, the ups and downs of the competition. It reflects the high wisdom of film creation. Not a suspense film, but a suspense film is my experience.

Frost/Nixon quotes

  • [from trailer]

    Richard Nixon: Why would I want to talk to David Frost?

    Swifty Lazar: I've got half a million dollars.

    Richard Nixon: Really?

  • 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!
