Cinema: Broadcast News (1987)

I remember watching Broadcast News before, likely on TV, and being impressed by the story. Let's see how well it held up! But I mean: William Hurt, Holly Hunter, Albert Brooks: can't go wrong with that cast! And always better on the big screen.

>>Please book your own ticket as soon as you can, I think this will sell out:

Tickets are £15, or £12 if you are a member. Please note attendance fee of £2 towards Meetup site costs.

Let's have a drink first before we go in by 5.30pm at the lastest - the Garden Cinema do not show ads but only some trailers so you can't get in if you're later than 10 mins past start time.

This is the review on the site:
"Since the 1970s, the name James L. Brooks has been synonymous with intelligent television comedy – his shows are insightful about work and love and always plugged in to the zeitgeist. He is also a master storyteller of the big screen, and none of his films was more quintessentially Brooks than Broadcast News. This caustic look inside the Washington news media stars Holly Hunter, in her breakout role, as a feisty television producer torn between an ambitious yet dim anchorman (William Hurt) and her closest confidant, a cynical veteran reporter (Albert Brooks). Brooks’s witty, gently prophetic film is a captivating transmission from an era in which ideas on relationships and the media were rapidly changing. –The Criterion Collection"
