Frost/Nixon

Synopsis: OscarĀ®-winning director Ron Howard brings to the screen writer Peter Morgan's electrifying battle between Richard Nixon, the disgraced president with a legacy to save, and David Frost, a jet-setting television personality with a name to make, in the untold story of the historic encounter that changed both: Frost/Nixon. Reprising their roles from Morgan's stageplay are Frank Langella, who won a Tony for his portrayal of Nixon, and Michael Sheen, who fully inhabited the part of Frost onstage in London and New York.

Cast: Frank Langella, Michael Sheen, Sam Rockwell, Toby Jones, Matthew MacFadyen, Kevin Bacon, Oliver Platt, Ned Vaughn

Director: Ron Howard

Recommendations: Just because of the subject matter, this has got to be a rental for me. Plus who wouldn't want to see Frank Langella and Michael Sheen's performance in this?!
