Frost looked just like 70´s Jack Nicholson

In some shots he was identical! Am I the only one who thinks so?

Absolutely love this film. Brilliantly acted, directed and written. Like the analogy that it is like a boxing match, they've both got their men in the corner. Nixon wins the first rounds with Frost on the ropes before Frost gets the knockout blow after a pep talk from his corner. Amazing film!

Looked very like a 2000s Michael Sheen. Or Tony Blair. Or Brian Clough. Or Kenneth Williams.
Sheen doesn't really look like any of these (or Nicholson for that matter!). But he's a brilliant actor and so is totally convincing.

Glad Leo DiCaprio wasn't Frost anyway, good actor though he is.

OP is spookily correct!

I freeze framed a still from the movie and asked my wife who he reminded her of? The Joker was the answer.

Its that man again!!

Michael Sheen's father is actually a Jack Nicholson impersonator. So I think you are onto something there.
