So happy you reacted to this movie and that you enjoyed it. I agree Andy Griffith gave an Oscar worthy performance and personally I think it’s better and more prescient than Network. Also the reason why they bring up Will Rogers is the screenwriter Budd Schulberg was friends with Will Rogers Jr who told him “his father was so full of shit because he pretends he’s just one of the people just one of the guys”. Lonesome was also molded after Arthur Godfrey another early television personality, Billy Graham, and Huey Long.

Never heard of this movie before....found some chopped up YouTube versions for a psuedo-watch along. Agree that Andy Griffith was great. How apropos of the current leader..."Good night you stupid people...."
