I SAW the impressive likely Oscar contender Frost / Nixon at Broad Street Cineworld today, followed by a Q&A with writer Peter Morgan and star Michael Sheen (who plays David Frost).

Filmed at the Curzon Mayfair in London, this Q&A was beamed into 36 cinemas nationwide 'from Aberdeen to Brighton and everywhere in between'.

I had assumed the film would be a factual account of David Frost's interviews with Richard Nixon.

Interestingly, Morgan revealed two key ways in which the film is heavily fictionalised - which then affected by entire view of what I'd just seen.

Now then, do I give these points away in my review on January 23 in order to help illuminate viewers' knowledge?

Or do I keep it, er, zipped?

Mmmm. One to think about in the days ahead - but, unusually, I'm inclined to spill the beans since Frost/Nixon is supposed to be, at least in part, a film about truth and justice.
