DVD Review: Frost/Nixon: Complete Interviews (2pc) (Spec): Richard Nixon, David Frost, Jorn Winther: Movies & TV
Product Description
The complete televised interviews.
Synopsis:
This program, culled from the over 28 hours of interview footage between Sir David Frost and U.S. President Richard M. Nixon, was originally broadcast in May of 1977. Never before, nor since, has a U.S. President been so candid on camera. Even more intriguing is the fact that Nixon agreed to appear on camera with no pre-interview preparation or screening of questions.
Now the subject of a Major Motion Picture directed by Ron Howard, Frost/Nixon: The Complete Interviews is a riveting historic time capsule. Topics include the following:
Watergate,
Nixon And The World (Soviet Union, China)
War At Home And Abroad (Vietnam, Nixon s War at Home)
The Final Days (Resignation of Agnew, Personal Taxes, Nixon s Pardon)
The Last Roundup (18 ½ minute gap, Supreme Court, Kissinger, John Mitchell).
This program also contains new footage with Sir David Frost shot in 2007 discussing the historic impact of the interviews along with his reactions of their famous encounter. Frost also discusses his views on Peter Morgan s interpretation and screenplay adaptation of this historical event.
Fascinating and Surprisingly Candid,
By M. Baptiste
(Daly City, CA United States) -
If you thought you saw it all with the Watergate interview that has been available on DVD for awhile, think again! The revelations in the Vietnam section of the Complete Frost/Nixon Interviews are even more shocking and candid. Watch as Nixon explains to Frost that when a President orders something illegal, say a break in, it isn’t illegal. The China/USSR Interview is fascinating as well, and surprisingly funny, as Nixon delivers some Chinese jokes and actually kids Frost about “forgetting the microphones are on in the Oval Office.” The Final Days and the Last Round Up are historic, too. Every President should sit down with someone like Frost after leaving office to leave us these in depth, thought provoking insights.
