For three years after being forced out of office, U.S. President Richard Nixon (Frank Langella) remained silent. However in summer 1977, he agreed to sit for an interview to confront the questions about his time in office, especially the Watergate scandal that ended his presidency. Nixon surprised everyone by selecting David Frost (Michael Sheen) as his televised confessor, intending to outfox the British TV host and secure a place in the hearts and minds of Americans.

What I really hated: Lengthy Conversation
is not your average movie.It has no special effect,no big cast and definitely not the show you wanna watch on a weekend.This show however has suprised me with it's compelling storyline.This movie is abt an interview done by a game host,David Frost. The subject of his interview?The fallen president of United State,Richard Nixon.Based on a true event,the Watergate incident,Frost wanted to gain more popularity by interviewing Nixon.Nixon was forced to quit as the president as he's suspected to be the mastermind of the Watergate event.Nixon nvr admitted to the crime.Frost saw his chance and paid for an exclusive interview with Nixon,determined to find out the answers..answers that every American is dying to know.With the stage set,both men cross swords..Who will emerge victorious?You gotta watch it to find out the answers...
