Frost Nixon

Slovenski opis filma:

Odlična politična drama je bila nominirana za pet oskarjev. Gre za resnično zgodbo o slavnem intervjuju med nekdanjim ameriškim predsednikom Richardom Nixonom in angleškim televizijskim voditeljem Davidom Frostom. Smo v letu 1977. Tri leta po prisilnem odstopu zaradi afere Watergate je Nixon molčal, se zaprl pred javnostjo in bil nedosegljiv za medije. To se spremeni, ko mu Frost ponudi zajeten kup denarja, če privoli v intervju. Nixon to vzame kot priložnost, da izboljša svojo podobo v javnosti, zato pristane. In izkaže se za zelo spretnega sogovornika, ki zna vsako besedo speljati na svoj mlin. Med njim in Frostom, ki ima pripravljena zelo težka vprašanja, se pred milijoni televizijskih gledalcev razplamti prava besedna, miselna in psihološka vojna.

Originalni opis filma:

Writer Peter Morgan's legendary 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 story of the historic encounter that changed both their lives. For three years after being forced from office, Nixon remained silent. But in summer 1977, the steely, cunning former commander-in-chief agreed to sit for one all-inclusive interview to confront the questions of his time in office and the Watergate scandal that ended his presidency. Nixon surprised everyone in selecting Frost as his televised confessor, intending to easily outfox the breezy British showman and secure a place in the hearts and minds of Americans (as well as a $600,000 fee). Likewise, Frost's team harbored doubts about their boss' ability to hold his own. But as cameras rolled, a charged battle of wits resulted.
