Journalists on screen

13/09/2018

Either be to reveal obscure powers and corruption, uncover the culprit of cases of abuse or even the responsible of unsolved crimes, the task of  the journalist has been captured in multiple ways on films and television series.

Filmmakers like Hitchcock, Welles, Ford, Mankiewicz, Preminger, Wilder, Lumet, Cronenberg,  Fincher or Nolan or series like The hour, Periodistas, State of play or The Newsroom inquire into this genre.

At the lobby of the Communication Library you’ll find a selection of movies and series as well as some text that reflect the relation between cinema and journalism. If you’re interested enough you can ask for a list of the displayed documents through the Pregunt@ service.
