The guy who played JFK is spot on...Just saying.
I don't know, I think they could've done better casting. 😉
So is the guy who play Nixon
cripplehawk hahahha
Anthony Hopkins.
A Dead Ringer?
Anthony Hopkins did a great job! What a great actor he is.
Say what you want, one must admit how beautiful his farewell address is
Joan Allen was spot on to play Pat Nixon
Joan Allen incidentally is gorgeous
they did a heck if a good editing job with the debate scene, it almost looks like he was at the debate in 1960.
It’s interesting, at his lowest moment in his life he gave a beautiful heartfelt speech; if he had been that man he would have been a great president.
Damn the actor that played Mao ze dong is really spot on!! 😱
Uncanny
The actor’s name is Ric Young, he also played Kao Kan (one of Lao Che’s sons) in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984).
Dimitri, I've just discovered your videos. These are very, very good. What you've managed to do to get the audio syched is remarkable, and must be quite a labor-intensive process.
I'm something of a buff of these sort of films, and you've given me a new appreciation for them. Thank you very much :)
Great job! What a creative idea for a video. My favourite movie!
You also could have done comparisons of audio segments of the real Nixon tapes next to reenacted dialogue from this movie. But really great video, extremely well synced and edited, I love this kind of stuff! Maybe you can do another on George W. Bush & Dick Cheney after this new movie Vice comes out, in tandem with W.
I know you probably get a lot of suggestions, but a really good film collection to put together next to real footage would be portrayals of Lyndon Johnson from RFK (2002, James Cromwell), All the Way (2016, Bryan Cranston), Path to War (2002, Michael Gambon) and Selma (2014, Tom Wilkinson). The latter two films actually contain a scene that's nearly word for word the same scene, just portrayed very differently with regard to the personalized interpretation of George Wallace. The same goes for a scene from Robert Kennedy & His Times (1985) depicting a tense confrontation between RFK and LBJ that is seemingly reenacted fully in the 2002 RFK film. Both RFK and Path to War include portrayals of Johnson's 1968 pledge not to run for reelection. I'm not sure whether the portrayal of Johnson in Jackie (2016) by John Carroll Lynch includes anything that we can see of him in footage. There was also a new movie about him titled simply LBJ with Woody Harrelson as the lead that I haven't seen yet.
Anyway, lots of good material, it would definitely be awesome to pick all scenes that were derived from real TV footage.
thanks

you should chek the scene comparisons playlist, maybe there's more stuff you like: ua-cam.com/play/PLoDCJGvdKRmnNG5vWSlmzeGjJfD5cZP_-.html
It's a really great physical performance. Doesn't look anything like him, but you forget and totally believe it
Anthony Hopkins is an outstanding author.
this is a great piece of editing ana analysis.. Thanks!!
Thank u so much for this video I really appreciate it thank u so much
Great job! One of my favorite movies for sure.
thanks ;)
top 10 of my favorite movies too ;)
sorry but i write in french : j'ai du voir le film "Nixon" au moins une dizaine de fois et j'ai toujours les frissons quand arrive la scène finale de son départ.
Nixon was a bad man...but that farewell speech...especially the part about his mother...makes me cry all the time
nah he’s my president
Crooked Nick knew how to twist your emotions.
He wasn't such a crook, at least no more than his peers
@@romanmarshall602 Welcome to the wonderful screwed up world of politics
@@Bestillivoze You say that it doesn't apply to all politicians
Get a Idea! Create a full crossover about Richard Nixon leaving the White House on Marine One between “Dick” (1999), “Frost/Nixon” (2008) and “Nixon” (1995). Thanks You!!! 😊😉
on Nixon, they used the real footage
I think it would be too short of a video but thanks for the suggestion ;)
José Pablo Beltrán sounds like a great idea
There was also a hbo special nixon on nixon 40 years ago Watergate
Que gran trabajo; gracias Dimitri !!!
You should do W.
I'd like to see that!
Hopkins' brilliance was not to try to imitate Nixon but to convey his essence
I second the 'wth happened' in regards to 0:35-0:45.
The guy ashed his cigarette in the lady's lap
Give Nixon credit - he is almost as good as Anthony Hopkins
I love watching your comparisons. You do a great job! Would you do Lavoe? Marc Anthony was in it. He played as Hector Lavoe.
thanks ;)
I'll see what I can do about your suggestion
4:21 Perfectly synchronized
Great movie.
I just found this and I have to say that Anthony Hopkins is the most un-Nixony Nixon who ever Nixoned.
I still prefer him to Langella, who gave a stage performance in a film.
Eh, guess he didn’t use his mimicry skills. Cause a 3 hour impression might be exhausting
Really - I think he nailed Nixon's tone - the awkward laugh while shivving someone
@@jamesoblivion I didn't see Langella's version. I feel like Hopkins plays Nixon as a sort of awkward buffoon and doesn't convey Nixon's intelligence or his vindictiveness. The film also glosses over his relationship with Eisenhower, which I think is a very important to his eventual downfall.
@@itntamir what about Nixon and Eisenhower? I don't knonw anything about thei relationship, can you tell me?
This is my favourite Anthony Hopkins performance. I thought it was superb and I prefer it to the Silence (overrated) and the Father (Good but his speech was too coherent for an Alzheimers sufferer).
My God, I miss Stone/Richardson/Williams!
That farewell address is the epitome of a tragedy. Nixon was supposed to be great and he could've been, one of the greatest presidents. If shouldn't have ended that how it did, but he just couldn't get out of his own way.
Perfect Shakespearean tragedy. He couldn't escape his own glaring character flaws.
Hopkins is nothing like the real Richard Nixon. Still a great movie.
The best actor for the role is not necessarily the one who looks exactly like the person in question - Hopkins is a highly expressive actor, his face can tell you what the character must be feeling which is why he looks so tortured during the depictions of Nixon's worst moments of his political career, which is in contrast to Nixon's well-maintained composure in real life. But we know he was tortured by these experiences and it nurtured the villain in him. As a consequence of Hopkins' efforts, even Nixon's biggest detractors can dredge up sympathy for the man and see that he was not some naturally villainous individual, but a person who rose from austere becomings, competed with rich kids in the arena, dinged and banged through many setbacks, all to reach the presidency. The point of the biopic isn't necessarily to make art imitating life, but to make art reveal the hidden layers that the untrained eye cannot see in what they perceive as reality.
@@Lysimachus Yes, or maybe even weave a story, a through-line which makes sense, out of the underlying emotions, extrapolated from a narrative.
How did you put your watch in Nixon
A great movie
Anthony Hopkins looks nothing like Nixon!!!
That's true. Theres some stuff he gets right though.
IKR could have given him some prosthetics and a makeup
He doesn’t have to be a perfect match to Nixon to play Nixon. The point is to tell a story, not do a 3 hour long impersonation. It’s not to bring the real Nixon back to life, it’s to tell a story. A story can be as exaggerated and dramatised as it wants to be. Prosthetics would’ve hid anthony hopkins’s own expressions and acting.
You forget about it after 5 minutes of watching because he nailed everything else.
Do Apollo 13.

I dont give a 5hit. GREAT FILM.
he sold it before they found oil on it
The guy who played Nixon looks like Lyndon Johnson, I believe Pierce Brosnan Should have Nixon role since they look slightly similar
Look for a movie titled "LBJ The Early Years", a t.v movie and be blown away.
2:45 what a big joke it is you would feel when you compare Chairman Mao’s images between the real video footage and the movie. It’s like a comparison between the God and the Devil.
Can somebody tell me what is name of the song? In 2:02 min.
Anthony Hopkins did a good job, but he was a little heavy physically. The real Nixon was husky, Hopkins looks bulky. He got the voice and facial expressions down well except the nose. I think Walter Matthau, Marlon Brando, Patrick Swayze, Kevin Kline or William Shatner in 1995 would have been a perfect Nixon for the movie. Hopkins was still good and so is the movie.
Hopkins performance was of this stocky, sweaty guy who overcompensated at times and visibly looked dazzled on other occasions. I don't think that really resembles the actual Nixon who was a more natural communicator than what was depicted here. All that said, I did enjoy both his performance and the way this movie was shot.
@boscovilante4068 what do you think of my choices. Swayze had the time to play him from the shooting schedule, but he wasn't offered. These actors are my idea with Swayze the one with availability.
Not a very historically accurate movie but a good watch.
Wow..
Other than the dialogue, Nixon movie wasn’t anything like the real thing.
This stupid presidential debate mode has now become worldwide bread and circus...
Anthony Hopkins does not look like Richard Nixon. This is a British actor portraying an American President
He’s Welch and he portrayed John Quincy Adams in Amistad.
T Hops looks oilier......
Played the part horribly
which Nixon?
Philip baker hall would have been the man to play Nixon, check him out. Hopkins was mis cast. Its a shame because this movie could have been a classic.
PBH already played Nixon. He did a fine job, but why repeat himself?
Not a good performance, now seing the original tapes shows it more
No................ but he made Nixon more real. He made Nixon more believable with his own mannerisms and attitude.
Compared to how Anthony Hopkins usually acts, he is like Nixon in the movie.

Anthony Hopkins is a fine actor. But, I did not think he would do Richard Nixon justice. For this reason I refused to see this movie. Having watched this side by side comparison, I feel 100% vindicated.
Ruth Field Beck .... then you have missed out. It’s one of the greatest, stand out performances i’ve ever seen. A great film.
@@craiglocker386 Amen, it's in my top five of best movies I've ever seen. The unedited version not the theatrical cut
I think it's magnificent performance. He captured the spirit of the man, the good and the bad. You walk away from the film understanding what drove him. It's a very empathetic portrayal. Someone walked up to Oliver Stone after seeing it and said, "I always hated Nixon, but you made me cry for the sonofabitch." That's quite an endorsement of the performance. He doesn't look like him, but after awhile it doesn't matter because he captures the man, the soul of the man, the body language, and the social awkwardness it gives off. I prefer this performance 1000 times over Frank Langella's - which is, in reality, an IMPRESSION of Nixon, not a PERFORMANCE as Nixon. It is Langella's version that portrays Nixon as Hollywood's favorite villain, not Hopkins. Oliver Stone's Nixon is his finest film - Beautifully shot, great cinematography, editing, and big actors doing big things. It is operatic and bold. It has common themes with Citizen Kane, and tells a similar story. It's one of the ten best films of that decade. And it is anchored by Hopkins brilliant performance.
he welshed it
It's Nixon as tragic Shakespearean figure. A man with many good intentions, undone by his own character flaws. Hopkins brings to it an authenticity flavored with embellishment, in a search for the emotional truth of the subject. It's a fascinating look at Nixon, and viewing clips out of context really doesn't get to the heart of the lead performance.
They stole a fair and square I always love that line Anthony Hopkins Hannibal Lecter hit this one out of the fucking ballpark
