National Press Day (November 16) was last week, and, as an entertainment journalist, I decided to base this column on a topic that is as personal as it is relevant — films on journalism and journalists. Journalism’s evolution has been depicted throughout the last 100-odd years thanks to pop culture, and the life and work of journalists have made for a wealth of memorable cinema.
