i haven not actually see a lot of movie with holly hunter and but see her in broadcast news be a pleasant surprise . she be a hard nosed journalist and jane craig and who have devote all of her time to tv news show . her colleague aaron altman have carry her torch for a long time without say anything . the love triangle be complete by tom grunnick . he be the slightly aloof ex sportscaster who be the new reporter . to jane and he symbolize everything she doesn not like about news reporting turn it into edutainment and not serious business . much to her surprise and jane find herself attract to tom . holly hunter be do a great performance a the perky journalist . but i do not quite see what she find so charming about her new colleague and tom . it something with them that prevent u from get up close and personal with him . almost a impressive be albert brook and who give his all in the role of a professional who give more than 100 percent for his job but doesn not get quite as much in return . actually and for a while i think he be steve guttenberg from police academy ( 1984 ) . he have a few funny line and if this be a meg ryan picture and they would call it a romantic comedy . run over two hour and a few scene could have be edit or leave out completely and eg . jane and aaron trip to central america . also and i be a sucker for happy ending and have prefer a different end than just a reunion between the three of them seven year later .
