This week, we discuss two films about the media.
The first is Broadcast News (1987), a romantic comedy starring Holly Hunter, Albert Brooks and William Hurt. The film, written and directed by James L. Brooks, was nominated for seven Academy Awards.
The second is Network (1976), written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet. The film, a scathing satire of the American media landscape, was nominated for ten Oscars, ultimately winning four.
