Just after seeing FROST/NIXON...powerful and moving, mostly due to Langella. Maybe it should have been titled "M" as a counterpoint to "W" earlier this season (but I guess "M" was taken as a film title!). But the point is, what a difference between the two men.Nixon the stuff of tragedy and Bush the stuff of farce. I can't imagine a filmmaker in the future making a moving picture about the current buffoon. Thanks for the mini-festival; (maybe the snack bar should offer a low-salt, cholestoral free menu for festival audiences?
Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella, Frank Langella,, and so on...go. see it...unlike "W.", you won't be squirming in your seat...enthralling
Frank Langella turned into Richard Nixon about 15 minutes into the film. Superb acting and writing. Well done
