YesAsia Editorial Description
SHATTERED GLASS recounts the rise and fall of Stephen Glass, the real-life journalist who ruined his career by writing fictional articles for The New Republic magazine. The film, set in scandal-frenzied Washington D.C. at the end of the Clinton era, portrays Glass (Hayden Christensen) as a mild-mannered, precocious, and charismatic journalist whose successes quickly accrue. Glass is a darling to the magazine's staff and to the sources who feed his stories. But when Christopher Lane (Peter Sarsgaard), replaces editor Michael Kelly, Glass finds his work under much greater scrutiny. Glass's writing, in fact, has been fishy all along, and he is finally found out by an Internet-based media reporter (Steve Zahn) who does his own fact-checking, introducing the trope of what a good journalist can do. As more of the facts emerge, the film pits integrity, honesty, and trust against Glass and his desire to entertain. The film boasts a number of excellent performances from its youthful cast, and offers poignant commentary on the world of media.
"...The most entertaining inside-journalism movie since ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN..." - Glenn, Kenny (Premiere/Entertainment Weekly Critic), Premiere, 11/01/2003

- Peter, Travers (Rolling Stone Critic), Rolling Stone, 11/13/2003
"...A contemporary cautionary tale....Christensen's Glass is unnervingly persuasive..."
- Kevin, Thomas (Film critic), Los Angeles Times, 10/16/2003

"...Engrossing..."
- Mike, Clark (USA Today Critic), USA Today, 10/31/2003
"...More than being a smart and accurate look at magazine journalism -- no small matter -- SHATTERED GLASS is also a compelling portrait of a psychosis at work..."
- Kenneth, Turan (Los Angeles Times Critic), Los Angeles Times, 10/31/2003
"...Right from the start, Hayden Christensen is a revelation..."
- Owen, Gleiberman (Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 11/07/2003

Good movie, but bad DVD format!!
|
Even on regular 4:3 tv, the movie's aspect ratio looks wrong... The image is a bit out of proportions, and the characters look as if being stretched by their heads and feet. However the movie is a good watch!! It's really up to you to decide whether this version is the one for you, but you might wanna look elsewhere instead if the DVD format is important to you. |
