MOMENTAN AUSVERKAUFT
Über dieses Produkt
Product Information
With stunning prescience, Sidney Lumet's searing satire of television and the contemporary moment chronicles media corruption and the way that the public buys into the myths the media creates. The moral and spiritual turpitude delivered by the debilitating forces of television are rendered in sharp relief against a backdrop of crumbling humanity in what is regarded as one of the great satires in Hollywood history. With a visceral script from Paddy Chayefsky, NETWORK follows the doomed path of aging newsman Howard Beale (Peter Finch), who, upon learning that he is to be fired after decades as a news anchor, announces to millions of viewers that he will publicly commit suicide during his last broadcast. When the ratings consequently shoot up, hungry executive-in-training Diana Christensen (Faye Dunaway) seizes the moment to exploit Beale's Messianic nervous breakdown, turning his rage into the vehicle for the network's first Number One show and a nationwide craze. Who could have predicted that this 1976 film might someday influence an even more contagious trend in television broadcasting: the reality show?Product Identifiers

Like a Vacuum Cleaner, "Network" Sucks AND Blows!
What can I say? I remembered it differently. It came to mind and I hunted it down - got a GREAT deal - was excited to watch it and... it's the WORST. Like Disney's "Black Hole" worst. Run away! Keep your cash!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Amazing
I can't help but think that the writers and producers were decades ahead of their time with the subject matter. As well, I couldn't be more satisfied with the speed of the delivery. Thank youBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

It's the truth about the network media
This is a classic which I have replaced in/of my original VHS collection. It is the truth about media power. It's a shame people don't watch it today.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
