The Loudest Voice
Oscar winner Russell Crowe (A Beautiful Mind, Gladiator) won a 2020 Golden Globe for his transformative performance as disgraced Fox News head Roger Ailes in this biographical mini-series, which was also nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Television Limited Series.
Time Magazine calls it “an elegant mix of character study, workplace drama and political thriller,” while Indiewire says it’s “a compelling, even artful, historical horror show out to remind viewers how news and politics were manipulated into the sorry state they’re in today.”
See the Roger Ailes story from another angle in Bombshell, the acclaimed movie starring John Lithgow as Ailes alongside Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman and Margot Robbie.
