gripping, potent look at not only the power of the media itself, but the people that give it that power in the first place. it plays like a less satirical, but more intense network, and is very much still appropriate today (if not more so). everything is just so well-done, kirk douglas absolutely nails the main role.

highly recommended for alky, __v__, neverending, and despare.
Caught this one in time. Thanks, J.

Sounds like a surefire winner (since Network is one of my favs)

Thats what the "HDC Recommends..." thread is for. :p

I thought it was a pretty decent watch, if you get past the first 30-odd minutes. Not great by any means, but a good timepass movie.
