IMDb plot summary: New York City tabloid editor Henry's faced with tough decisions while he faces several serious life challenges, and a tempting job offer.
Directed by Ron Howard. Starring Michael Keaton, Robert Duvall, Glenn Close, and Marisa Tomei.
There are moments where this movie seems to be spinning off into soap opera-level drama, particularly in the last half hour, but it never quite falls into absurdity and all seems to fit into the world that has been built for us. Everything is heightened here, and the effect is a little dizzying, but it's a fun and enjoyable watch, especially if you're a fan of newspaper movies already.
