Newscaster Howard Beale has a message for those who package reports of cute puppies, movie premieres, and fender benders as hard news: "I'm as mad as heIl, and I'm not going to take this anymore." Sidney Lumet directs Paddy Chayefsky's satire (an Academy Award-winning screenplay) about the things people do for love . . . and ratings. Three performers won Oscars. Best Actress Faye Dunaway is the TV exec guarding ratings like a tigress protecting cubs. Best Actor Peter Finch is Beale, whose airwave rants become a phenomenon. And WiIIiam Holden, Robert DuvaII and Best Supporting Actress Beatrice Straight add to the fierce vitality. |
