Whenever I heard about people talking about a movie called "Network" I thought they were talking about "Network News" -- and I was wrong -- I am totally going to rent the movie, that's for sure. Looks like an amazing film.The more things change the more they stay the same.This was a time when we were very passionate about the environment and we were totally committed to changing the world on the momentum of the Vietnam War -- it was impossible, pre-Reagan, to ever consider what happened under Reagan and now George W Bush to ever happen.When Ronald Reagan tore down the solar panels that Jimmy Carter had put up on the White House, it was surely a harbinger of things to come.

I was sitting at my desk watching it with headphones and I was like scared! I never heard of that movie but it is filmed so cool. The silence surrounding his diatribe was haunting, you know? And the camera movement. It was like, whenever it went to Faye Dunaway it was kind of a relief, but at the same time, unfortunate. I didn't read those words after. Maybe you're not looking for a movie critique, but man I'm psyched to get turned on to something new, like this. Thanks. That was scary.
