Film Break Society: NETWORK (1976) at Naro Cinema
Thursday, August 13th, 2026
7:30pm Doors | 8:00pm Showtime

How mad are you? Corporations control the government, the news media stokes conflict for ratings, growing shareholder value masquerades as ethics. There’s runaway inflation, flat wages, mass layoffs, profiteering, assassinations, atrocities, brutality, corruption. Sidney Lumet covered all of this fifty years ago in NETWORK. How mad are you? Not mad enough. Stars Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway, William Holden and Robert Duvall. (1976, R, 2h 1m)

“Howard Beale, a veteran newscaster, is informed by his ratings-driven network executives that he is about to be dumped because he “skews old” – in turn, he uses his next broadcast to announce that he is going to commit suicide on his final programme. An ambitious programming executive convinces her superiors to let the broadcast go ahead, hoping that the final event will give the network its greatest ratings ever.” – Park Circus
