The Image ★★½ 1989
Anchorman Finney, the unscrupulous czar of infotainment, does a little soul delving when a man he wrongly implicated in a savings and loan debacle decides to check into the hereafter ahead of schedule. Seems the newsmonger's cut a few corners en route to the big-time, and his public is mad as hell and…oops, wrong movie (need we say there are not a few echoes of “Network”?). Finney's great. 91m/C VHS, DVD . Albert Finney, John Mahoney, Kathy Baker, Swoosie Kurtz, Marsha Mason, Spalding Gray; D: Peter Werner; M: James Newton Howard. CABLE
