So I watched the Frost/Nixon film last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it. The recreation of the 70's locations and costumes was very convincing; and the whole interview as boxing match metaphor worked really well for me. Partly as a result of watching this I've grabbed a copy of "The Deal", some of Michael Sheen's early work. I was quite moved by Sheen's portrayal of David Frost, particularly in those moments when it seemed like the big undertaking of the Nixon interviews was all falling apart. I was also startled to find that Michael Sheen played the lycanthrope Lucian in the Underworld series, as I totally hadn't recognized him.
