Frost on Nixon, Sheen on Frost
As Frost/Nixon hits theaters, The Daily Beast brought together Sir David Frost and Michael Sheen, who plays him in the film. Recalling the climax of both the film and the iconic interview with the former president, Frost says that he had to physically take control over Nixon. "It was a question of pushing him further and further," Frost says. "But the body language comes into it as well as the words... Michael caught that perfectly." Explains Sheen, "You can physicalize your desire to probe and to confront and not allow someone to wriggle out of things." The truth also comes out about the drunken phone call featured in the film: it never took place.
