In addition to Nixon, the protagonist of the film is the host Foster. That TV interview made his most glorious moment. How dramatic is this. A British gossip entertainment host suddenly raised funds on his own and went to interview one. The infamous president who stepped down at the time, for example, can you imagine a website reporter who was editing the gossip of a celebrity yesterday suddenly went to interview a certain country’s dignitaries? In the film, Foster's thoughts clearly puzzled his colleagues at first, and made Nixon's team disdain. They are separated like a mountain. Although both gossip and political programs are fooling people, it can even be said that the former is sincere entertainment. The public, but the latter still has to put on a sufficiently reserved face. But later, the Nixon team figured out that their great failed president needed a comeback of public opinion, and took a rookie in the field of political theory to complete the reshaping of Nixon's image, so the good show was staged. In my opinion, one of the highlights of this film is to make a TV interview full of suspense and tension. One side is the famous former president despite the bad reputation. He is obviously inherently weak in this interview, but Old treacherous and cunning, with the support of a strong and experienced team. The other party has relatively little reputation and lack of experience, but has an inherent moral advantage. What's more, he and the team behind him are passionate and unburdened.
In the film, there are several rounds of confrontation between the two sides, and there are sporadic "foreplay" and hidden hands, such as the negotiation of interview fees, the arrangement of the order of the questions, the percentage distribution of the Watergate incident in the interviews, etc., which made me understand a little bit better. Details of the talk show. Nixon was indeed old and confident. Before the war started, he played with Foster's shoes. In the next few games, we saw that Foster was restrained everywhere. For example, we wanted to stimulate him with the feeling of asking Nixon to step down in the Watergate incident. As a result, Nixon took the stubbornly, and described his difficulties and his relationship with his daughter emotionally, which made Foster look embarrassed and silly, and the team behind him was anxious to collapse. And Foster also gradually fell into the trough of the soul, and the morale of the whole team was low. We knew that at this time, some of the important bridges came to counterattack. So the screenwriter created a bridge. Nixon suddenly called Foster. , Extremely frank, and extremely gaffe, he looked on the verge of collapse, and Foster also suddenly went crazy. In the last round of interview recording, Nixon sadly admitted that he "disappointed the American people", and that freeze frame was unwilling. The sad and lonely look is a classic moment. This film adapted from the drama of the same name really created a sense of tension, and many details were grasped. When the climax, Foster waited nervously for the silent Nixon to reply, I also looked forward and waited nervously for this. The response of the old man in the film who seems to me not so hateful. The bigger point of the film is the performance. The original cast of the drama starred in the guaranteed performance of the film. Mike Xin, who once played Blair in "Queen", will show Foster's psychological ups and downs throughout the interview process. , That kind of neurotic passion is very charming.
And what moved me most in this film was Nixon, played by Langela. For a president who was once glorious, he was unwilling to step down. In my heart, he thought he was doing the right thing, even if it was illegal. Like many people who cannot find North under power, he stubbornly believes that he represents the interests of the Americans, the law is even his bondage, so the presidential wiretapping is legal in his opinion, and judicial interference is feasible in his opinion. Yes, in his opinion, lies are a necessary means to reach the right path, even a politically inevitable conspiracy. Even if he has become a former president, he still carries a sense of injustice. Langert shows his inner fear and unwillingness well. He is afraid of leaving a life infamy, and he is unwilling to all his achievements. Was obliterated by a Watergate incident, so in the confrontation with Foster, he was confident and arrogant to fight back. The veteran he almost did it, but in the end he had to lose with helpless eyes. . Although the telephone conversation with Foster in the film is a fabricated one, the psychological anxiety of Nixon on the verge of collapse was expressed directly into the hearts of the people, and it also left a step for his defeat. The old man was too tired and too lonely. Acknowledging that he has let the people down, it also relieved him of the burden of soul. Some mistakes cannot be made. Political conspiracies were easier to make people angry than Clinton's lower body impulse. What's more, the combination of interference in investigations and deception made him really not forgiven by the people in his life, and only got some formal glory when he died. , Sad and sad.
"Foster Conversation with Nixon" is an Oscar-like film. It is a masterpiece not to be missed by viewers who like political themes. Nixon has become a historical figure in ancient times. As an important testimony to his life, this interview will be an important testimony to his life. All kinds of materials that may not have been opened have become the footnotes of his life. He is bound to be discussed again and again in the future, and the history of his interpretation continues.
