[Ghoulish Delight]

Without combing back through the thread, I believe it was Alex who made the comment of Langella's Nixon that it started out not seeming right, but eventually "locked in" (my term) and became very compelling. If I am remembering that comment correctly, I totally agree. I was having much trouble accepting him as Nixon for the first couple of scenes, but it eventually clicked and I thoroughly enjoyed the portrayal.

I wonder how much of my initial inability to accept it has to do with the fact that my mental model of Nixon is entirely saturated by Billy West's ridiculous version.
