I am going to see the new Oliver Stone film tonight anybody else interested in this one?

I have not read the reviews on it yet (I don't like reading them before I see a film) but they seem to be positive based on the headlines and the reaction seems to be that Stone has not made a film bashing Bush but one that may leave you feeling bad for the guy. I'm not surprised to hear this as if you've seen Nixon he made you feel for the man in that picture as well.

Anyway, I like Stone's political films (you may say all his films are political) but this is his second film about a Republican president. The media seems to be calling this his third film about a president but JFK really was not about the man. JFK was about his assassination and the investigation that followed and theories related to it, so I don't really count that one.

Has anybody seen Altman's Nixon film "Secret Honor?"

It's based on a play and has Philip Baker Hall giving a rip-snorting reading of Tricky Dick. Speaking of Nixon plays being made into films, Frost/Nixon, which Cass was so kind to inform us about, is also coming to a multiplex near you soon. I never got to New York to see it but at least now I can see the film.

Which reminds me of something, does anybody know where I can get a copy of the actual Frost/Nixon interviews on dvd? I thought they were available in their entirety and it's been about 15 years or so since I have seen them.
