Morning Glory

I first saw Morning Glory in the movies during the week and there was like one other person at the theater. So I recall. The Whitesone (Bronx) since then closed. One of various movie theaters that I went to over the years that eventually did so.

The film is on some level as cotton candy as the morning show it is about. Still, it's fun in various ways, including a cast led by producer Rachel McAdams in roles where someone says "get me a --- type for this role." It also has various amusing scenes, including when she is upset a character carping at promos. She said something (showing her snarky side) like "the person who gave you promo approval must have been on crack." And, usually a film with Jeff Goldblum playing some character (in both uses of the word) has some good stuff.

It was on again this morning and is available free on demand. It's pretty fun, with a bit of actual real message behind it, especially since on demand you can fast forward. Harrison Ford making eggs to make sure she stays as producer is a great climax, including when she is just at the moment [seems like a kinda weird time for it] at an interview with the show on the background. She is like "what the heck is going on" as it goes down.
