In this episode of Left of the Projector, I discuss the 1976 film Network with graduate film student Andre Swai. We analyze the film's biting satire on media, focusing on Howard Beale's descent into sensationalism and Faye Dunaway's obsession with ratings. Our conversation highlights the film's critique of corporate greed and its relevance in today's media landscape as we approach 2024. We also draw connections to other films that echo similar themes, reinforcing "Network's" enduring significance in cultural commentary on the interplay between entertainment and societal values.
Apologies for the quality on this one.
