We Mean Business: Enron: Smartest Guys in The Room

A film season to inspire getting sh*t done. We present our favourite flicks from the executive board meeting room of the 80’s. Expect big shoulder pads, bigger hair and colossal egos. This cast of characters knew how to get things done; their morals may be twisted but you can’t fault their resourcefulness. 

Enron: Smartest Guys in The Room 

Thursday 27th September 

Year: 2005 Cert: 15 Run Time: 1h 50m 

We take a look at the facts behind the fiction as acclaimed documentarian Alex Gibney takes us through the story of the Enron corporation, its faulty and corrupt business practices, and how they led to its fall. Diving from the seventh largest US company to bankruptcy in less than a year, Gibney places an emphasis on human drama, from suicide to 20,000 people sacked. Along the way, we watch Enron game California's deregulated electricity market, use greed to manipulate banks and brokerages, and hear from both Presidents Bush what great guys these are.
