Richard Nixon became the first president in American history to be forced to resign after the Watergate Incident. On the one hand, Nixon did not apologize to the public on the one hand, and on the other hand he still could not hide his desire to return to politics and control power. Accepting this seemingly unreliable interview, I want to use this seemingly frivolous and stupid talk show host, a British playboy to re-establish his own public image. Frank Langra, who plays Nixon, vividly portrays the controversial president, with a slowly leaning forward body, meaningful and aggressive eyes, a twisting conversation skills, politicians’ old manners, vigilance and cunning, and power and success. Never tire of pursuit.
David Foster, the host of a British talk show, saw Nixon’s subtle facial expressions when he was saying goodbye to the people at the door of the cabin on TV, and he had the idea of interviewing him. The purpose was very simple---famous and fortune, and almost all his colleagues. Despicable. So when the angry youth consultant he got asked him what the purpose of your tossing was, Foster couldn't hide his embarrassment, and asked him what was the purpose of your coming here? The angry young man lifted the table on the spot. But after seeing Nixon for the first time, he realized how difficult his opponent was, and he also understood that if he was tricked by Nixon in the end, he would not only steal the chicken and eat the rice, but also take it for himself. Humiliation followed by ruin, and Nixon would completely cover up his crimes, and this was the biggest sin he had committed. Maxine played the urgly version of Blair in "Queen" to let everyone remember his flattering and embarrassing face, and his charming smile in "Dialogue Nixon" was even more brilliant. But he showed another trait of chasing winners: Although grandstanding and even frivolous, he is always positive, optimistic, busy, under pressure, accepting doubts, and indomitable.
We all know the ending. Nixon finally admitted in this contest: He abused his power and failed the American people. Foster's triumphant win both fame and fortune. The turning point of the whole story appeared on the eve of the last interview. A weird call Nixon made to Foster, a call that Nixon completely did not remember the next day. The director's handling of the call was so critical and so tranced, but it was This phone call made us suddenly realize the situation and beliefs of the two of them, and it was also this phone call that allowed Foster to make a decision if he didn't succeed.
What kind of talents are eager to pursue success, what kind of talents are pursuing peak glory, and are constantly suffering in unwilling fire. An excerpt from this phone call is the answer.
Nixon: Those Cambridge power ghosts look down on you too, right?
Foster: Of course despise
Nixon: Is not this what our tragedy, Foster? No matter how high we climb, they still look down on us. No matter how many awards you have won, how many columns have written about you, or how high the position I was elected, it is not enough. We still feel that we are small people, just like those losers. Tell us repeatedly. Those self-righteous guys in the university, those in high positions, those from famous backgrounds, the respect they enjoy is what we really want. Isn't that the reason why we work hard today, fight for semicolons, and climb up unscrupulously? Let us stop pretending, reflect on ourselves, and glance at the dark corner of our heart called the soul. Isn't that the reason why we are today? Find a way to retry the sun, become the focus of the public, and once again sit on the winner's throne, because we feel that he is drifting away, and we are heading towards the real dust. Power ghosts always say that that is our fate. We are ashamed, and the more we do, the more humiliation we get. Okay, let the fuck! We will never let him happen! We want to let those idiots take a look, let them breathe out in front of our constant headlines, constant trophy power and glory!
