Just watched Bombshell...

Had my reservations about the film....however this is a film which most of you will thoroughly enjoy...the term schadenfreud comes to mind.. big time..

Thoroughly enjoyed watching how Roger Ailes was shoved into a cesspool .... Yea he got a payout big time...but his private empire which he cherished so much was ripped way from his crotch.. Loved it!

The acting and direction was simply terrific..

So relevant to our community here ... so I posted it

will comment on the comparison. Russell Crowe was very good in that version as Ailes.

Agree on the acting and direction. See it for that alone -- five to six actresses at the top of their game.
