The Pros And Cons Of Frost/Nixon

I think the movie Frost/Nixon is an okay movie that has many positives and negatives. The movie really takes the history of what happened in real life into consideration.

However, it ends with Nixon finally semi admitting that he had prior knowledge to what he admitted before of the scandals. I believe that if the film was done over again, the creators would add more action into the
