  • "The world is a college of corporations, inexorably determined by the immutable bylaws of business. The world is a business, Mr. Beale. It has been since man crawled out of the slime."
    (Arthur Jensen)

    Network (1976) is a sharp satire directed by Sidney Lumet and written by Paddy Chayefsky, exploring the dark side of television and corporate power. The film features Peter Finch as Howard Beale, the “mad prophet of the airwaves”; Faye Dunaway as Diana Christensen, a ruthless network executive; William Holden as Max Schumacher, a journalist with a conscience; and Ned Beatty as Arthur Jensen, a corporate titan delivering a chilling monologue about the nature of global capitalism. The story reveals how the media manipulates reality for profit, with themes that remain strikingly relevant.
