Network<\/a><\/p>\n

Holy shite, how have ah nawt seen this before?<\/p>\n

A truly great film that delves intae tha world of news shows, corporate greed, fanaticism, shock-tv, n even a touch of interpersonal relationships. Released in 1976, this is tha story of Howard Beale (who is “Mad as Hell” and “Not Going to Take This Anymore!” – a soundclip familiar ta many, er at least me) who tells his television audience he’s going to shoot himself on tha air b\/c he’s been fired. This sends of an eventual shockwave through tha television audience, n ah won’t say any more about tha plot.<\/p>\n

Ah was turned ontae this a while back when watchin Zeitgeist – The Movie<\/a> which is scary, thought-provokin, n also a bit off tha deep end. Howevah ah dae recommend it – n it had me interested enuff ta search out Network, so its gawt that gaein fer it.<\/p>\n

Seriously, Network rings almost yesterday-true despite bein ovah 30 years old. Quick dialogue, fast-moving shots, and excellent acting take this movie intae tha realm of “timeless”. It suffers from a flaw here and there, but is a convincing, and subtley shocking, piece of cinema that will stick with you. This will possibly be tha first movie ahve netflixed n then ended up buying (n ah don’t even remembah how long its been since ah bought a dvd – certainly more then a year).<\/p>\n

Netflix it!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
