'Network' 2/15/11
Newscaster Howard Beale has a message for those who package reports of cute puppies, movie premieres and fender benders as hard news: “I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this anymore.” Sidney Lumet directs Paddy Chayefsky’s satire about the things people do for love…and ratings. Faye Dunaway plays a TV exec guarding ratings like a tigress protecting her cubs; Peter Finch’s airwave rants become a phenomenon and William Holden, Robert Duvall and Beatrice Straight add to the fierce vitality.
Special Features:
· The Making of Network 6-Part Documentary: Tune in to How a Movie Landmark Caught Media Lightning, with Sidebars on Paddy Chayefsky, Getting Mad As Hell and Walter Cronkite’s Reflections
· Vintage Paddy Chayefsky Interview Excerpt from Dinah!, Hosted by Dinah Shore
· Commentary by Director Sidney Lumet
· Private Screenings with Sidney Lumet: Turner Classic Movies Host Robert Osborne Interviews the Director

YAYYY!!! I held off buying the DVD for financial reasons for so long then I decided to hold out for Blu-Ray! Glad I waited.
The tag line on the cover has to go. That can't be the actual tag line from the original movie. It sounds like they are trying to make a direct to video sequel or something.

Such a great film. Warner, please don't fuck up the PQ! Now, let's get those other 70's classics out (not all WB). Such as "Chinatown", "The Sting", "Jaws", "Lenny", "All That Jazz", "Cabaret", "Manhattan", "Nashville", "Annie Hall", "Julia", "Heaven Can Wait", "The Sunshine Boys", "Shampoo" and "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore".
