Question:
hey,
all i can remember about this film is that it is about a very cynical reporter (news i think) that discovers the whereabouts of a lost child but doesnt alert anybody to ramp up all of the tension and coverage in his story.
think it is a 50's film and for some reason i thought it starred kirk douglas but i have had a quick look on imdb and i couldnt see anything that resembled this.
really appreciate anyhelp on this one, cheers

Ace in the Hole aka The Big Carnival its about a trapped miner.
Its by the wonderful Billy Wilder and its a very good dark cynical film. Spike Lee pays homage to it in one shot of Malcolm X.
no need to bother guys as i managed to find it myself!!! doh!
:oh-hum:
for anyone that is intrigued anyways the film is billy wilders 'the big carnival'
cheers for that nathan!
the speed of this forum, i just love it. :D
