THE NEWSREADER

THE NEWSREADER

Anna Torv is one of my favorite actresses. In The Newsreader she plays an anchorwoman virtually on the edge of a breakdown in the high-pressure world of TV news in Melbourne Australia in 1986, a year when the news moved quickly from the Challenger explosion to the “A dingo ate my baby,” story, to Hally’s Comet, Aids, and terrorism in Australia. Great show, free on the Peacock Network.
