...encouraging him to be strong, insisting an interview be stopped at the first sign of Nixon's vulnerability. All these plot elements have some basis in fact. Morgan's one fanciful addition is a phone call Nixon makes to Frost, spilling out his guts, fears and resentments.

The plot is fuzzily sketched out, with side trips that contribute nothing to the storyline except to set the scene for another fight. To cover up this lack of substance, there’s some cheap and flashy editing and a smattering of out-of-place one-liners. Split-second montages connect some scenes, and nearly every other shot in the car flips focus back and forth between Valentina...
