When I was like in high school I bought it when my local rental store was selling stock. It was one of my favorite movies.

I do like a stellar ensemble!

Incredible cast! I can't believe Glenn Close still doesn't have an Oscar.

She's the female Peter O' Toole and that was an Oscar crime too. Someone should make a movie called "Just Give us an Oscar Already" and it's just Glenn Close and Annette Bening being amazing. And then the next year the sequel, " Thanks, Now Give it to the Other One." I'd watch.

Something about Ron Howard ensemble movies hit different (you’ve already seen Parenthood 😉) One of my favorite movies, glad you all enjoyed it too!

Daniel Lydford

One of my favourite movies to rewatch - it's a solid story, and a great cast.

Carl Wilson

This movie's too much of a love letter to journalism for the end to mean that he's leaving the paper, I think. Even his almost-died wife basically seems to agree it was all worthwhile the next morning. And as an ex-newspaper editor - obviously it gets very crazy (the hours-late replating seems pretty much impossible) but a lot of the earlier newsroom scenes aren't too far out there. It does remind me that it can sometimes feel like the best job in the world.

Most interesting thing: Glenn Close's character was originally written as a man! Ron Howard swapped the gender without changing much else. You can kind of tell, but it would have been a much duller movie with a man in that part.

Fun fact when Ron Howard first met one of the films screenwriters David Koepp all he wanted to talk about was how much he had loved the script for Parenthood (1989). Which Ron Howard found very flattering.

I was really hoping she’d finally get one for The Wife. I think it was just too cerebral a film and they left the most dramatic part of the book out of the script.

Great reaction - as always!

I like the idea of it being one crazy day and the world seems like it's ending and in reality, it's just a Tuesday for these guys

The walking into the men's bathroom scene wouldn't have worked as well if the character was a man.

I loved Kurt Loder from MTV news peering over the stall door.

Apparently Graydon Carter (who was mentioned in a Gilmore Girls episode) also made a cameo along with Kurt Loder and Bob Costas.

Do you guys really enjoy the movies we pick? Have you ever said, “sorry Bob, sorry Sue, not for us”?

This- along with Sorkin's Newsroom are very unrealistic portrayals of the media....very few if any in the US think about anything but money.....

WINS is REAL- they are the all news radio station of the NYC area- "give us 22 minutes and we'll give you the world". Listened to it over breakfast for sports, weather, traffic, subway delays etc as teen and in my 20s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WINS_(AM)
