60 of 200 · most liked firstRIP to Wings Hauser, an American original and the man behind some of the most deranged film performances I've ever seen. (Also he's the smug lawyer that gets told "wipe that smirk off your face" in The Insider) I wrote about him last year; this is a gift link. defector.com/wings-hauser...

unlabelledView post →Michael Mann's 1999 film The Insider is rentable to stream for $3.99 in various venues. This might be the night for it. If you've never seen it, run, don't walk. (To your couch.)
unlabelledView post →THE INSIDER by Mann is a damn evergreen movie about how the sausages are made over at CBS
unlabelledView post →#CoyoteVsACME is like Who Framed Roger Rabbit meets The Insider. It’s absolutely terrific - a groundbreaking milestone for a new generation. My review: freshfiction.tv/coyote-vs-ac...
unlabelledView post →“The film is dead-accurate.” I recently spoke to #MichaelMann for the 25th anniversary of #TheInsider Mann reveals a ton of cool info including having an infiltrated editing room, to a 300-page annotated screenplay and so much more. collider.com/michael-mann...
unlabelledView post →Rewatched The Insider. So taken with all the nods to the OJ trial, the Unibomber…centering a 1994-set journo movie on this of all things, right as the world turned to salacious entertainment masked as news “What got broken here doesn’t get put back together” Sure didn’t
unlabelledView post →needed another screening of Michael Mann's The Insider for my mental health
unlabelledView post →goes without saying but Russell Crowe is so good in THE INSIDER it's wild. the film is on Criterion Channel right now so if you haven't seen it now's the TIME.
unlabelledView post →The Insider is a Christmas movie
unlabelledView post →Few films capture moral courage like The Insider. Released 26 years ago today, it remains a haunting testament to truth and sacrifice—rendered in Mann’s immaculate style. For us, this is by far Mann's best film. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ cinephiliabeyond.org/the-insider/
unlabelledView post →Sure. That’s the plot of THE INSIDER. But not airing the Wigand interview was a big enough story to turn into a major movie!
unlabelledView post →60 Min was doing a piece with a whistleblower. (This was the subject of a movie, The Insider.) Brown and Williamson attempted to stop the segment from airing by threatening a lawsuit. 2/
unlabelledView post →This is why I love The Insider so much as a movie. 60 Mins is such an important institution bc there are so many people there who care about nothing other than telling the truth
unlabelledView post →I would love to hear what Bari Weiss thinks about the 1999 Michael Mann movie THE INSIDER
unlabelledView post →Watching The Insider (criterion) for the first time in many years. The way Michael Mann just opens a film and drops you into the action. Like Miami Vice (2006 film). Incredible. Want to write every one of my shitty articles like this. 🚬
unlabelledView post →to phrase it another way: Spinotti was the DP on THE INSIDER and now he’s the cinematographer on a propaganda film for the administration that is engineering the destruction of 60 Minutes and CBS News
unlabelledView post →Perfect 🎯...Had to look up the movie....."The Insider"
unlabelledView post →FYI, the excellent Michael Mann directed film The Insider (1999), which seems especially relevant in light of CBS ownership's ongoing interference with "60 Minutes," is now streaming on Hulu.
unlabelledView post →A great piece on the most frustratingly relevant film of 2025. I think about THE INSIDER every day.
unlabelledView post →The Insider is such a fist-pumping fuck-you movie. Every slow, desperate battle for this country’s soul and for our individual souls should look so good
unlabelledView post →We are excited to announce two incredible special screenings with the Egyptian in December in advance of our 50th anniversary screening series in 2025. Michael Mann in person with THE INSIDER + HEAT, and Todd Haynes in person with SAFE + CAROL.
unlabelledView post →No_Notes on TikTok recommended rewatching The Insider with Russel Crow, a film based on a true story about how a network was told to squash a piece about big tobacco, in light of what's going on at 60 minutes, and I'd honestly forgot about the film and will dutifully give it a rewatch!
unlabelledView post →remember a week or two ago when i said The Insider might be Mann’s best movie?
unlabelledView post →I know licensing deals are drawn out enough that the timing is probably coincidental but just a heads-up that THE INSIDER came back to Hulu today www.hulu.com/movie/b5af35...
unlabelledView post →My haters: Misty, everything isn't about the last Michael Mann movie you watched Me: Oh no, absolutely. So, in The Insider,
unlabelledView post →My 110th favorite thing about THE INSIDER, a movie that I totally and completely love: There is a terse, tense, highly masculine showdown involving dueling fax machines.
unlabelledView post →Have I ever said that I think THE INSIDER is the greatest movie ever made? Well, for my In Review Online debut, I write about the movie's relevant understanding of journalism's capitulating limitations and how those themes are elevated by Mann's signatures. inreviewonline.com/2025/09/30/w...
unlabelledView post →Revisited Michael Mann's "The Insider" ...got DAMN...a cold blooded movie and a cold blooded movie in both contexts. So that when I say it's a "Stone Cold" masterpiece I mean exactly that... My ★★★★★ review of The Insider on Letterboxd boxd.it/9vQ2bv
unlabelledView post →It's #LetterboxdFriday! Here's my #LastFourWatched Some pretty wild sci-fi/fantasy/horror, including Michael Mann's worst film. Plus The Insider, one of his absolute best.
unlabelledView post →Once again, in light of Colbert & Kimmel being canceled, I highly recommend people watch the 1999 Michael Mann movie The Insider. It's a perfect example of the corporate interference in the media they own and create.
unlabelledView post →If Priscilla so much as mentions a movie, you can bet it’s worth checking out/revisiting. Enjoyed watching The Insider today for the first time since it came out in theaters.
unlabelledView post →You ever just rewatch THE INSIDER and think “this is the best movie”
unlabelledView post →when I was in j-school, my mass media law professor gave us 5 percent extra credit if we came and watched this movie (THE INSIDER) one random night in the college basement because he thought it was important for us to understand the feckless losers who will get in the way of good work
unlabelledView post →The Insider is streaming on Hulu if you’re maybe wanting to watch the greatest board room film ever made
unlabelledView post →6. The Insider Remember when the news was the news? I have no idea how Russell Crowe got in this movie but he's surprisingly effective.
unlabelledView post →I hate the fact that Bari Weiss is rapidly turning THE INSIDER into a period film where the fact that there was a time when 60 Minutes was a relevant cultural institution is akin to having a plot that relies on a public phone booth.
unlabelledView post →depending on my mood i might say The Insider is Mann’s best movie. certainly his most thematically mature and prescient at any rate
unlabelledView post →There's never been a better time to watch The Insider, other than any other time because it's genuinely a flawless movie. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGOb...
unlabelledView post →The Insider is a great movie
unlabelledView post →Aside from watching the USA collapse in real time, I watched a limited series and a documentary about Ayrton Senna, the Brad Pitt Formula One movie, and Michael Mann's The Insider #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday
unlabelledView post →Just for the hell of it I'd like to remind everyone of this four film run from Michael Mann: 1986 MANHUNTER 1992 THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS 1995 HEAT 1999 THE INSIDER That's the cinematic equivalent of being 🔥on fire🔥 in NBA Jam, folks. My guy was unconscious.
unlabelledView post →#NowWatching THE INSIDER (1999). Director: Michael Mann. Russell Crowe, Al Pacino. Rewatching Mann's timeless piece about courage, honor & duty...and the toll it exacts. Crowe as whistle-blower to "Big Tobacco" secrets. Nominated for 7 Oscars, including Best Picture. #filmsky 📽

unlabelledView post →Tonight's film is... The Insider. Watching Gladiator II made me remember how awesome Russell Crowe is, so getting a Crowe injection. Also it's Michael Mann and a stacked cast.
unlabelledView post →The Los Angeles Film Critics Association @lafilmcritics.bsky.social is hosting a double feature of THE INSIDER and HEAT on Wednesday, December 4th, with a Q&A in between with Michael Mann! JOIN. US. #filmsky #moviesky 📽️
unlabelledView post →Now playing: The Insider GAH. Love love love this one. 1999. In a year of absolutely baller films, Michael Mann's multi-nuanced examination of a tobacco company whistleblower is easily 1999's best (screw you, American Beauty) and would be my fave movie from that year if not for Bowfinger. I know.
unlabelledView post →I just watched the film The Insider and it was so heart-breakingly quaint that it hinges on the huge scandal when 60 Minutes wouldn't air an interview.
unlabelledView post →Rainy Saturday evening movie is Michael Mann’s The Insider
unlabelledView post →Well if we're gonna live out a Michael Mann movie, probably better The Insider than Manhunter
unlabelledView post →Scoop: There is going to be a third movie about corporate meddling with 60 Minutes. The first film was titled "The Insider", the second was titled "Truth." The new movie has the working title of "The Arson." ParamountWarnerBrothersTikTokOracle has reportedly passed on it.
unlabelledView post →The Insider is an amazing film. The sound design is extraordinary and has been a big inspiration for me. No big action sounds, but subtle poetic moments and brilliant musicality. I often use the deposition scene in Mississippi when teaching sound students about powerful use of silence. Masterpiece.
unlabelledView post →If you've not seen Michael Mann's 1999 film THE INSIDER about the true story of CBS News and 60 Minutes and Big Tobacco--with Russell Crowe, Al Pacino, Christopher Plummer, and Bruce McGill (his scene in the courtroom is an earthquake)--boo on you.
unlabelledView post →This semester I added The Insider (1999) directed by Michael Mann #botd - how it explores the way corporate brass tries to kill journalists' news stories to avoid the threat of lawsuits and liability. Recommend this film as a new watch or rewatch.
unlabelledView post →Michael Mann looks back at the legacy of "The Insider." He thinks the movie was infiltrated by a spy, and reflects on Mike Wallace's thin-skinned reaction. The film's value goes beyond tobacco lies or media scandals. It's about the high cost that sometimes comes from doing what's right. #filmsky
unlabelledView post →Michael Mann's 1999 film 'The Insider' is on youtube
unlabelledView post →Today we celebrate the 25th anniversary of one of the most important and significant films ever made. It is also our favorite Michael Mann film. Ladies and gentlemen, let's bow to THE INSIDER. cinephiliabeyond.org/the-insider/
unlabelledView post →I’m rewatching The Insider (great film), and decided to watch the 60 Minutes interview at its center, too. When Dr. Wigand describes “impact boosting” I started jonesing for a cigarette. I haven’t smoked in over 14 years; it’s incredible the intensity of that addiction!
unlabelledView post →The Insider is so bloody good. It's my favorite Mann film. He takes the driest material imaginable—depositions, phone calls, the minutia of a legal case, and makes it riveting. Today of all days, I wonder what stories he's thinking about doing next.
unlabelledView post →Working on the 1999 collection on #criterionchannel. This was the year I graduated high school and really got into film, so some of these movies were my first "real" films, like The Virgin Suicides & The Insider & Bringing Out the Dead stand out as early moments when I was building my taste.
