After living in the role for the last few years in the stage play of the same name–much like Richard Griffiths in Alan Bennett's <i>The History Boys</i>–Langella <i>owns</i> his character. You almost forget it's him behind Nixon's false nose and bushy brow. Unlike Griffiths, though, the Best Actor Oscar appears to be Langella's to lose (in my opinion).<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7842895590350228596-3077949136241179995?l=therijo.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Ben Henrynoreply@blogger.com0
