Broadcast News (1987 James L Brooks & scr, prod)

William Hurt, Albert Brooks and Holly Hunter. Now Hunter's maybe not my favourite actress, and her character here is volatile and frankly unlikable, but it's a good performance from her and the other two (highlight is Brooks singing along to French record, reprised in credits).

With Robert Prosky (station boss), Lois Chiles, Joan Cusack, Peter Hackes, Jack Nicholson, Christian Clemenson as the editor.

Edited by Richard Marks, shot by Michael Ballhaus.

Its essence - that the news should be reported honestly -
