- Abstract
- Film as Text. Frost/Nixon (Ron Howard, 2008) draws on a harrowing interview between British television identity David Frost and a post-presidency Richard Nixon, but is not always historically accurate. Despite this, it is a powerful reminder of the tenuous line that barely separates the personal from the political, writes Alexandra Heller-Nicholas.
