He cannot be forgiven because he cannot forgive himself, and no scene has ever portrayed self-loathing so vividly. Before the internet echo chamber, Sidney Lumet’s Network predicted the rage economy. The scene where Howard Beale (Peter Finch) becomes the “Mad Prophet of the Airwaves” is more than a monologue; it is a primal scream.
