Happy New Episode! After a holiday recording hiatus, we're back and are discussing Polina's pick Broadcast News (1987). Polina loves the competence porn in this movie (you read that correctly). Diana was very pleased with this funny, familiar, but non-formulaic love triangle. Plus jumps at the chance to talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Take two rival television reporters: one handsome (William Hurt), one talented (Albert Brooks), both male. Add one Producer, female (Holly Hunter). Mix well, and watch the sparks fly. Directed by James L. Brooks and also stars Robert Prosky, Lois Chiles, Joan Cusack, and Jack Nicholson. (From IMDb.com)
