The clip nixon on the phone Part 2 from Frost Nixon (2008) with Frank Langella, Michael Sheen

for this interview, she did a profile on you.
And I'm sorry to say that I just got around to reading it tonight.
There's some interesting stuff in there.
Your Methodist background, the modest circumstances,
and then you're off to a grand university full of richer, posher types.
What was it? Oxford?
Cambridge.
Did the snobs there look down on you, too?
Of course they did. That's our tragedy, isn't it, Mr. Frost?
No matter how high we get, they still look down at us.
I really don't know what you're talking about.
Yes, you do.
Now, come on. No matter how many awards
or column inches are written about you
or how high the elected office is for me, it's still not enough.
We still feel like the little man,
the loser they told us we were a hundred times.
The smart-asses at college, the high-ups, the well-born,
the people whose respect we really wanted, really craved.
And isn't that why we work so hard now, why we fight for every inch,
scrambling our way up in undignified fashion?
If we're honest for a minute, if we reflect privately just for a moment,
if we allow ourselves a glimpse into that shadowy place we call our soul,
isn't that why we're here now? The two of us?
Looking for a way back into the sun,
into the limelight, back onto the winner's podium.
Because we could feel it slipping away.
