Certain tricky scenes work well because of the presence of Julianne Nicholson, an actress of fresh charm and uninflected honesty who glowed in a movie named " Tully" that you should rent immediately. The movie, directed by Nick Hurran and written by Melissa Carter and Elisa Bell, is every bit as cynical as "Network" but at the same time engenders a sweet onscreen romance, although not between the people we anticipate. The long closing sequence is virtuoso, redefining what went before and requiring Murphy to become a more complex character than she gave any hint of in the opening scenes. Where the movie goes with this is fairly hard to anticipate, although by the end we have been given a convincing demonstration of the amorality of a television show in search of better ratings. They think they're possible guests she thinks they're possible rivals.
Abusing her position on the "Kippie Kann Show," Stacy calls them in for interviews. Stacy meets some of them: A supermodel named Lulu Fritz ( Josie Maran), a chef named Joyce ( Julianne Nicholson), a gynecologist named Dr. She is meanwhile dating the hunky Derek ( Ron Livingston), a sports agent who's maybe 10 years older and has dated a lot of women. Young Stacy suggests a show on "little black books" - in particular, the Palm Pilot, Trio or Blackberry of the person you're dating, which may contain evidence that you're being cheated on. Her ratings are tanking, and the show is shamelessly seeking sensationalism. "Kippie Kann" is on the brink of being canceled.

Stacy's mentor on the show is a producer named Barb ( Holly Hunter), who could be a more experienced, more cynical version of the TV news producer Hunter played in "Broadcast News." Stacy begins a little more humbly, in cable TV, and works her way up to the "Kippie Kann Show," a daytime talk strip whose hostess, played by Kathy Bates, is a wannabe Jerry Springer/Jenny Jones. Murphy plays Stacy Holt, who worships above all living beings Diane Sawyer, and dreams not of becoming Diane Sawyer, but simply of becoming her assistant, to serve this great woman with the devotion she deserves. She lures us into the picture on false pretenses she's cute and chirpy in the early scenes, we assume this is going to be a routine career-girl comedy, and we're surprised when it moves deeper into its subject until finally it's a satirical comedy about television that invades some of the same territory as " Network" or " Broadcast News." Hardcover.In "Little Black Book," Murphy has the necessary qualities to function as a sort of decoy. And yes, like its predecessor, it’s not really little and in this case, it’s not even black.
