About the Movie
Writer/director/producer James L. Brooks scores on all counts with this clear-eyed look at the television news business and the dysfunctional types who work in it. Brooks' intelligent script introduces us to Jane Craig (Holly Hunter), an ambitious producer at the network news division's Washington D.C. branch, who is calm under fire yet has a good cry at her desk every morning over her empty personal life. Jane works well with Aaron Altman (Albert Brooks), an excellent reporter who lacks the visual charisma to make him a star. Into their lives comes Tom Grunick (William Hurt), a regional newscaster who admits he can't write news and doesn't understand many of the events he's covering, but has the presence and physical appeal that the increasingly entertainment-oriented network wants for its news programs. Jane is also physically attracted to him, which drives her crazy, because Grunick stands for everything she's fighting against in the news business, while Altman is devastated by her attraction because he secretly yearns for Jane. As Grunick becomes a rising star at the network, and layoffs of the old guard loom, the three leads deal with their feelings for each other, their careers, and their values. Hunter, Hurt, and Brooks are all superb, as is the excellent supporting cast (including an unbilled turn by Jack Nicholson as the network's smarmy national anchor). Brooks' script is funny, poignant, gritty, and brutally honest in its examinations of the television industry and the ways in which professionals interact on and off the job.

剧情简介
　　故事背景是华盛顿某电视台的新闻部。霍利．亨特是具有强烈使命感和道德观念的新闻节目制作人，她跟成熟而冷静的资深记者艾伯特．布鲁克斯是好搭档，但却又情不自禁喜欢上胸无点墨的英俊播报员威廉．赫特。赫特在一次由他策划的专访中流下同情之泪，令亨特大为感动，但布鲁克斯却将他斥为煽情。在感情和事业上，相貌平庸的布鲁克斯都被忽视，后来更在电视台裁员时被辞退。赫特却相反地获升迁，还赢得亨特的爱情。但布鲁克斯最后说出赫特在专访中造假的真相，才让亨特清醒过来。
　　这是一部关于电视台新闻制作内幕的精彩影片。全片探讨个人感情与新闻道德之间的关系，拍得细腻动人，杰克·尼科尔森客串纽约的著名主播，十分抢戏。影片对该行业的剖析尖锐但不尖刻，但三角关系显得颇为廉价。
