Review of Network (1976) by Héliø L — 18 Feb 2016
Aaron Sorkin clearly owes a lot to Paddy Chayefsky. Possibly Sidney Lumet's best work, this masterpiece is reportedly Paul Thomas Anderson's favourite film. It aged like really fine wine and as far as commentary on the media and entertainment goes, it's still hard to find another film that nails it so madly as hell.
Absolutely loved that it was initially snubbed by a bunch of A-lister actors in Hollywood who then had to watch the film win three of the four possible acting awards at the Oscars, something that hasn't happened again since.
