Here Is the News

About This Movie

Here Is the News is an intriguing little gem from 1989 that dives deep into the life of a freelance journalist, David Dunhill. The pacing's a bit uneven, but it mirrors the chaotic world of news reporting quite well. There's this underlying tension as David grapples with both his big story and his own peculiarities, which adds a layer of depth to his character. The performances, though not widely recognized, have a certain rawness that feels genuine, especially in the quieter moments. The atmosphere leans heavily on the drama of the newsroom – it really captures that frenetic energy of breaking news. It’s not flashy with effects or anything, but it’s that character-driven approach that gives it a distinctive feel.

Focus on character development over action. · Quirky yet relatable lead performance. · Captures the essence of 1980s TV drama.
