Network

After viewing Network, I definitely feel that it lived up to the reviews that I had read about it beforehand. I was expecting more plot based around Howard Beale, but now that I've seen it, I think that the subplots of the radical terrorists and the affair between Max and Diana were an important part of the film. What I found most interesting was the difference between Diana and Max, which he spoke about in both a scene with his wife, and a scene with Diana herself ("You're television incarnate, Diana"). This movie makes an interesting statement about the effects of television on society and humans.
