Film Meme - (3/10) Films-Network (directed by Sidney Lumet)

“I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be. We know things are bad - worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone.' Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot - I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad. You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, God damn it! My life has VALUE!' So I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell, 'I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!' I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell - 'I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad!… You've got to say, 'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: "I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!"”

Imagine a world where Network (1976) was actually cynical and not a clairvoyant documentary about how the rich and powerful would spend the next half a century using infotainment to destroy the entire journalism industry. (You really should watch it if you haven't.)

Karl Bode has recently written about the deliberate plot to kill journalism.

Curiously, this didn’t appeared as a main recomendation on my Youtube notifications like other channels I’m subscribed to.

What does this say about the algorithm when it comes to videos about politics and media criticism?

This is Kyle Kallgren's best video essay to date. Absolutely a must-watch.

I really like how this essay doesn't make the mistake of using the topic to solely dress down right-leaning pundits, but rather presents it in a more universal light by pointing out that nobody on any side of the political spectrum is immune to this. The real tragedy in the aftermath of Howard Beale's famous rant is that it was presented as a cautionary tale against perpetuating the cycle of anger, but real-life society has since taken the wrong lessons from it and did exactly what the film predicted would happen: It has turned outrage into a commodity. We took the first part to heart and became "mad as hell", but only rarely committed to the second part that is "not gonna take it anymore".

Anger should never be the end goal. It should be the starting signal towards taking effective action and pushing for social change.

Anyone getting Network vibes?

"This was the story of Christopher Sterns: the first known instance of a TV anchor who was killed because he was suspected of being an alien in disguise." 😉

The “I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take it anymore” is always so cathartic but there are no windows in this high school English classroom
