San Diego Reader

Puff piece on the exciting and demanding and rewarding field of TV journalism. The names of the savvy veteran and his protégé, eventually husband and wife, has-been and star-is-born, tell you all you need to know: Warren Justice and Tally Atwater. (They are acted, with soggy chemistry, by the former golden boy, now golden old man, Robert Redford, and the anorexic android, Michelle Pfeiffer.) Incredibly enough, the script is credited to Joan Didion and John Gregory Dunne, who must have bills to pay like anyone else. With Kate Nelligan, Joe Mantegna, Stockard Channing; directed by Jon Avnet. 1996.
