TV station "crazy" and "cloud"

"TV" is a film with a rigorous production and a serious theme. At the end of the film, the scene of the four TV shows at the beginning reappears, the news of "Bieux was murdered" and other commercials are continuously broadcast, and a murder with a huge conspiracy has become a fortune for tens of thousands of people. The people's pastime of "passing the boring time", the obscenity and filth of the TV industry have been magnified to the greatest extent at the end of the film.
This is a serious film, with a serious theme and a wide range of content. It discusses a series of issues such as the national economy and people's livelihood from the perspective of the TV industry. Furthermore, the ugly image of the TV industry's intrigue and profit-seeking was nakedly exposed. Unexpectedly, there are so many grievances and grievances and ugly conspiracies hidden behind the seemingly simple and interesting TV programs.
There is no soundtrack from the beginning to the end, only the monotonous program intro and ending song. Without the accompaniment, it means that there is no atmosphere creation, no emotional guidance, and everything needs to be felt by the audience. This inevitably makes the film a bit boring, but this may be the embodiment of the director's rigorous attitude. He just wants to present the most real state of the TV industry to the audience, and let the audience feel the serious theme that the film wants to express from a third-person perspective.
Rigorous style, serious themes, but a somewhat crazy romantic story to show it all. Serious news shows turned into free-spirited talk shows, and the deranged "Bieux" became a popular icon. In this somewhat bizarre story, what a bit of irony is contained in the director!
In the era of more and more developed communications, television has gradually become the main body of public opinion. However, the greed for profit manipulates the conscience of TV practitioners, which has to be worrying!

Network quotes

  • [Jensen leads Beale into the conference room]

    Arthur Jensen: Valhalla, Mr. Beale. Please, sit down.

  • Max Schumacher: Howard, I'm taking you off the air. I think you're having a breakdown, require treatment.

    Howard Beale: This is not a psychotic episode. This is a cleansing moment of clarity. I'm imbued, Max. I'm imbued with some special spirit. It's not a religious feeling at all. It's a shocking eruption of great electrical energy. I feel vivid and flashing, as if suddenly I'd been plugged into some great electromagnetic field. I feel connected to all living things. To flowers, birds, all the animals of the world. And even to some great, unseen, living force. What I think the Hindus call prana. But it's not a breakdown. I've never felt more orderly in my life. It is a shattering and beautiful sensation. It is the exalted flow of the space-time continuum, save that it is spaceless and timeless and... of such loveliness. I feel on the verge of some great, ultimate truth. And you will not take me off the air for now or for any other spaceless time!
