Nixon film as horror historyStone oversells Nixon while masking flaws in Oliver Stone's Nixon
The Nixon biopic directed by Oliver Stone opens in gothic mood and treats Nixon as a fallen hero. Anthony Hopkins delivers a tense portrait, while Joan Allen shines as First Lady. The film’s black and white color shifts, lack of Watergate context, and conspiracy hints detract from the drama.
