IT’S THE STORY OF THEIR LIVES. Basket-case network news producer Jane Craig falls for new reporter Tom Grunnick, a pretty boy who represents the trend towards entertainment news she despises. Aaron Altman, a talented but plain correspondent, carries an unrequited torch for Jane. Sparks fly between the three as the network prepares for big changes, and both the news and Jane must decide between style and substance.
My Review
I thought this was a masterpiece when I first saw it. Now, I think it's just very good. I thought Hunter overdid it, and Hurt always does that thing where he cocks his head to the side and shrugs. Brooks though. :chefs kiss:
