# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Classic Film Class: Network
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 15 Apr, 2026 at 06:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Introduced by film historian John Martello.

 
In this lauded satire, veteran news anchorman Howard Beale (Peter Finch) discovers that he's being put out to pasture, and he's none too happy about it. After threatening to shoot himself on live television, instead he launches into an angry televised rant, which turns out to be a huge ratings boost for the UBS network. This stunt allows ambitious producer Diana Christensen (Faye Dunaway) to develop even more outrageous programming, a concept that she takes to unsettling extremes.

 
A satire at the time, the film became sadly prescient as networks pushed the envelope to get higher ratings, with Aaron Sorkin saying that “no predictor of the future - not even Orwell – has ever been as right as Chayefsky was when he wrote Network.”

 
Entertaining, cutting, and yet dire, Network was nominated for ten Academy Awards (including two for Best Actor) is one of only three films that have won three of the four acting awards. Come see why critics and audiences have loved it for decades – and why it’s still relevant today.
