Network (1976)

The theme of entertainment through degradation is strong here. Cynical television execs exploiting people for their own selfish needs. It's all quite clear and precise throughout. The middle stretch of the film lacked in dramatic interest, for me personally. I didn't care for these main characters or their personal situations. Peter Finch plays the best part, but he is sort-of sidelined during a decent portion. Luckily, the film is bookended by a terrific beginning and ending. Both are razor sharp and leave a lasting sting. Only wishing the entire film carried that bite.
