In a profile, the Newark Star-Ledger’s Stephen Whitty gets Frank Langella to compare playing RN in “Frost/Nixon” to playing Thomas More in A Man For All Seasons:

“Thomas More was a man fighting for his life,” the actor says, sitting in a Manhattan hotel room just a few hours before curtain time. “And, to a certain degree, Richard Nixon was a man fighting for his life, for respect. What’s important in each case is to bring across a sense of what motivated them to persevere.”
