Network is a 1976 American satirical comedy drama film directed by Sidney Lumet and written by Paddy Chayefsky. It depicts a television network struggling with poor ratings until the nightly live broadcast of its longtime news anchor Howard Beale inadvertently showcases his breakdown into increasingly psychotic behaviour, which makes his show a surprise hit.
