1. Randi Rhodes' favorite film clip.

I'll always kick and rec this one.

2. One of the best movies ever made.

Seriously, so so ahead of its time. Network seemed so farsical, so outlandish when it was made. Now it reads like a documentary.

Editing to add another wonderful clip from this movie:

5. Not like a documentary. It was an instruction manual.

That's the worst part of the whole thing. The media companies saw "Network" as a How-To. And they did it.

7. You have a point.

Although I think they were probably on that path already.

8. I should have paid more attention to this ....

but in 76, I was very young.

Now imagine it as Rupert talking to Glenn Beck.

4. They cut the next scene...

where everybody is yelling out their windows, "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!"

They always cut this clip before the payoff scene. That's too bad.

BTW, love it.

6. Sure, Make me Google the Howard Beale show.

1976 - that makes me feel old.
