Exclusive“Deadline – USA” (1952): First Newsroom Story

Stories about the men and women who work in the media have always been fascinating. In the first half of the 20th century, newspapers were the main conveyors of news, so stories about the bustle of the newsroom were popular subject matter for films. A surprisingly obscure newsroom movie is “Deadline-USA” from 1952. Starring Academy Award-honorees Humphrey Bogart, Kim Hunter, and Ethel Barrymore, this is a forgotten gem based on the sunset days of two real publications. With a dramatic, action-packed story interspersed with heart-warming romance, this unusual film is sure to delight classic film fans and newcomers to the genre alike!
