Stringer/Nightcrawler, directed by Dan Gilroy. Unemployed, but very savvy on the Internet, Louis Bloom, unsuccessfully trying to find a job. Once he comes across on the street a film crew of stringers - people listening to police frequencies and rushing to the scene of accidents, trying to be the first to film and then sell hot news on TV channels. He liked the idea and was very suitable for his personal qualities (complete sociopathy, cynicism, heartlessness). He quickly achieved great success, stepping on the heads and sometimes getting rid of competitors. Jake Gyllenhaal played the role perfectly, although the hero is disgusting.
