Synopsis
Dir. Sidney Lumet
U.S.A. 1976
With: Faye Dunaway; William Holden; Peter Finch; Robert Duvall
Dark Comedy / Psychological Drama 2hrs 2mins
A television network cynically exploits a deranged former anchor’s ravings and revelations about mass media for its own profit, but finds that his message may be difficult to control. Following his firing from the network, due to loss of his once strong ratings, the anchorman reacts in an unexpected way which affects the fortunes of himself, his co-workers and the network. A prophetic masterpiece whose scathing satire of media culture grows more relevant with time
Screening for its 50th Anniversary. Winner of 4 Oscars: Best Actor; Best Actress; Best Supporting Actress and Original Screenplay.
