This was one of those really enjoyable movies that crept up on me. The premise is already amusing, so there was that, but both actors so embodied their characters that it was fun to sink into the drama.* Insights into the pain and pleasures of being famous were plentiful also.
Cost: free via work-sponsored Netflix
Where watched: at home
*Kevin Spacey looks nothing like Nixon, but he had the man down.

Your review had me at Kevin Spacey.
How interesting. I do rather enjoy the ‘difficulties of being famous’ sorts of fictions. My YA romance reading this summer rather proved that!!!
I sort of forgot that this movie existed. But I’m seeing the words “Michael Shannon” and thinking that I should add this to my queue.
