The 'Assassaination Of Richard Nixon' is ok. Reminded me alot of 'Taxi Driver' but with a slower pace to it and its basically just Penn for the whole film. Worth a look but maybe on dvd.

Yeah, saw '.............Nixon' today. Profoundly depressing. Starts downbeat then just goes down and down!! Very good though. Penn is brilliant. Restrains himself, doesn't reach for the over-act button and is all the better for it. If yr looking for good horror rent 'The Grudge' No, hold on !! It's scary as f**k!!!

Penn is very good in Nixon but the film is turgid stuff indeed. Man loses everything, declines into depression with horrendous results. I did wonder why this story needed to be told. That said, I did watch it at 10:30 AM last Sunday morning, not exactly a chipper start to the day.
