QUIZ SHOW (1994)
Directed by the late Robert Redford; starring Ralph Fiennes, Rob Morrow, and John Turturro.
This was an awards-season darling in late '94/early '95, and for many it was their underdog contender against FORREST GUMP and PULP FICTION - a serious, intellectual period drama about Real Issues - yawn! - instead of, uh, whatever those other two movies are about. I saw it in the theater when it was released and liked it - my Dad, an English and sometimes History teacher - loved it and insisted it was the best of those three films. It was nominated for Best Picture (and many other Oscars). I've only seen it once subsequently, maybe in the mid-00s - but I would now agree with my late father that it is (if not better than FG and PF at least) more timely (or timeless) today than those films. As QUIZ SHOW is about media representation, journalistic ethics, propaganda, corporatism, truth, honor, charlatanry, et al........ actually it's extremely relevant today!
I haven't seen that since I was a kid
I remember really liking it

Last post by M.10rda - November 23, 2025, 12:35:14 PMI guess "lukewarm" is about right. You are in plentiful good company in your estimation of STALAG 17, clearly. I didn't hate it but I find myself curiously immune to Wilder's classic style. (I don't love SUNSET at all, either.) Maybe this is the same missing genome that keeps me from loving CASABLANCA and VERTIGO. And as I mentioned I dislike M*A*S*H... Catch-22 the novel is one of my favorite books, though both adaptations are (good but) flawed.
