...confrontation between Frost and Nixon is choreographed not like an interview but as an almost medieval clash of titans.Instead of the ominous pounding of armored feet on earth, we witness the purposeful pacing of black shoes on pavement. In place of dark steeds carrying villains, we have the jet-black limousines of the presidential motorcade. The generals in this war of words are researchers for Frost and staffers, headed Kevin Bacon as Jack Brennan, for Nixon.At the same time, true to its original stage play format, “Frost/Nixon” is a film driven by its acting...

(Did Brad Pitt really have jet-black hair and sideburns?) So on the last day of Davos I enjoy a little ritual.
