Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room
Alex Gibney's Oscar-nominated documentary is a searing indictment of the corporate mentality. Based on the best-seller by 'Fortune' magazine writers Bethany McLean and Peter Elkind this is a thorough and insightful dissection of one of the biggest scandals ever to rock the business world, tracking insidious corruption at all levels of the seventh largest company in the world, and ultimately its inglorious collapse. Engrossing, entertaining and subtly enraging.
