What We're Watching: Kathryn

Frost/Nixon (2008, R) Starring Frank Langella, Michael Sheen, Oliver Platt, Kevin Bacon, and Sam Rockwell

This Academy Award-nominated movie was highly enjoyable, with enough great acting and suspense to keep viewers riveted to the very end. Frank Langella got an Oscar and a Golden Globe nomination for portraying a spot-on Nixon, but Michael Sheen also shone as British talk show host David Frost, who put his career on the line post-Watergate to get one last interview and, perhaps, an apology out of the former president.
Based on the Tony award-winning play, this movie is probably one of director Ron Howard's best.
