The news today is one neverending sensationalization, a televised theatre of death, misery and destruction. A topic of inspiration for Jake Gyllenhall’s new movie Nightcrawler.
Directed by Dan Gilroy the movie tells the story of a driven young man, Lou Bloom, who is desperate to break into the news business in Los Angeles and discovers the pulse-puonding world of crime journalism, where freelance camera crews record crashes and murder on the city streets, often before the police have arrived.
Nightcrawler goes on general release October 31st.
