After The New York Times begins publishing articles based on the "Pentagon Papers", Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee (Tom Hanks) looks to get in on the story. At the same time, Katherine 'Kay' Graham (Meryl Streep) - the Post's owner/publisher - is preparing to take the company public and a crisis could jeopardise the whole deal. "The Pentagon Papers" are part of a classified report on US involvement in the Vietnam conflict that showed, among other things, that the scope of their involvement had secretly been enlarged despite the fact they knew they couldn't win, and that several administrations had lied about it. Making it something that Nixon was desperate to keep under wraps, threatening legal action against anyone who dares publish them. So the question is; if Bradlee and his team can find a source with a copy of the report, will they be able to run the story and avoid going to jail? Once again Steven Spielberg has taken a fascinating

To mark the release of Steven Spielberg's "The Post" we've put together a list of our favourite movies and TV shows about journalism. They may be an idealistic and glamourised look at the profession - determined reporters who rarely sleep, working tirelessly to get the big story - but there's something about watching the underdogs take on everyone from criminals to big business to governments in the search for truth.  So here it is, in no particular order our top 5 movies and TV shows about journalism: All the President's Men If this is Star Wars - A New Hope then The Post is Rogue One. Based on the book of the same name, All the President's Men is the true story of Bob Woodward (Robert Redford) and Carl Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman), two reporters for The Washington Post who covered the Watergate scandal. When five men are arrested breaking into the Democratic National HQ in the Watergate complex, they are soon linked to the government and Pres

Much like 2010's The Social Network, Molly's Game takes us into a Sorkin-esque dramatisation of history. After a fall robs her of her goal of skiing in the Olympics, Molly Bloom (Jessica Chastain) goes in search of her new self, one that doesn't involve skis. A decision that more than displeases her father and coach (Kevin Costner). Molly's journey takes her to Los Angeles where she finds work as an assistant. Part of her job is to host her boss' private poker game. With the help of one of the players, an unidentified actor - played by Michael Cera - Molly is soon running one of the most exclusive poker games in Hollywood, living solely on the tips she receives from the players. Intertwined with the story of her incredible rise is that of her fall, her arrest by the FBI and trial for ties to organised crime. Idris Elba co-stars as Molly's lawyer, Charlie Jaffey. Aaron Sorkin, the writer known for engrossing stories, interesting characters and snappy

We finally have a synopsis for the troubled Han Solo origin story: Board the Millenium Falcon and journey to a galaxy far, far away in Solo: A Star Wars Story, an all-new adventure with the most beloved scoundrel in the galaxy. Through a series of daring escapades within a dark and dangerous criminal underworld, Han Solo meets his mighty future copilot Chewbacca and encounters the notorious gambler Lando Calrissian, in a journey that will set the course of one of the Star Wars saga's most unlikely heroes.    There it is, but it doesn’t really tell us anything we didn’t already know. There’s no mention of any of the new characters - including a villain - or what Han and Chewie are going up against. For now, it seems the smuggler’s origins remain shrouded in mystery!

After destroying Starkiller Base, what's left of the Resistance is on the run, with a First Order fleet hot on their heels. In an attempt to aid their escape, Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) sends Finn (John Boyega) and Resistance Mechanic Rose (Kelly Marie Tran) on a secret mission. Meanwhile on Ach-To, Rey (Daisy Ridley) attempts to convince Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) to show her the ways of the Force and to join the Resistance in the fight against the First Order. In what is a first for Star Wars (unless you count Rogue One), the story picks up immediately after the events of The Force Awakens. Rey finally gets to hand Luke his father's lightsaber - although she doesn't get quite the response she expects. It's here that Mark Hamill demonstrates his abilities as an actor, for Luke isn't the optimistic Jedi Knight we saw in Episode VI. Having endured a hard life along with the loss of his new Jedi Temple at the hands of Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), he has become di
