What movies do news anchors watch to unwind after a day of breaking stories? Jacqueline Coley sits down with Tom Llamas—anchor and managing editor of NBC Nightly News with Tom Llamas and host of Top Story with Tom Llamas on NBC News Now—to find out.
From growing up in Miami and interning at Telemundo to anchoring across network and streaming, Tom reflects on his journey through nearly every newsroom role at NBCUniversal. He shares how he balances the weight of covering hard news and enjoying some of his favorite films like Major League, The Searchers, and The Godfather.
Tom opens up about passing movie classics down to his kids (even if Jaws gave the youngest a scare), his Cuban American roots and food recommendations, and what authentic depictions of journalism on screen resonate most with him—from Spotlight to Deadline U.S.A. Plus, he talks about finding humanity at the anchor desk and the playful friendship he shares with fellow broadcaster Craig Melvin.
