  • Frost/Nixon is a film adaptation of Peter Morgan's play of the same name. The Arizona Reporter review believes "the results are riveting. Here is a political movie that tramples Oliver Stone's W into the dust, making us wonder whether Stone is a sell-out. Director Ron Howard, by contrast, dazzles with a partisan exposition, though he and scripter (Peter) Morgan are not entirely unsympathetic to poor Mr. Nixon."Arizona Reporter: Movie Reviews: Frost/Nixon (November 12, 2008)

    • "Most of the drama is evoked by backstage preparations, the sorts of brainstorming sessions we all know that the candidates for President and Vice-President went through in the 2008 debates."—Arizona ReporterArizona Reporter: Movie Reviews: Frost/Nixon (November 12, 2008)
