full.network-8x10 color still set-4903

Original MGM Set of 8 Printed Color Stills (8×10) from the Sidney Lumet dramatic masterpiece, NETWORK (1976)—starring Faye Dunaway, William Holden, Peter Finch, and Robert Duvall. This excellent film is about a fading news anchor who is given a new lease after he speaks candidly, emotionally, and profanely about his feelings on his supposed last broadcast. But a Programming VP (Dunaway) decides he is the answer to all the network’s sagging ratings. The actors are all so superb (the film received five Academy Awards acting nominations) that they make screeching caricatures into almost sympathetic characters. The film has been described as high art masquerading as popular entertainment. These original studio color stills are in near mint condition. Included is the one truly great close up of the three men of NETWORK – Holden, Finch and Robert Duvall.
