i watched the corporation for the first time. it's an exceptional documentary that everyfreakingbody should watch. the film covered kind of the "history" of this human invention, the corporation, and listed and reviewed these frightening and disturbing things that resulted from the big corporations in capitalism.
the movie was just under 2.5 hours. actually, the directors, who gathered videotapes of interviews with important people and archival tapes, collected over 450 hours of footage, explaining the detailed gruesome results of the corporation in dozens of anecdotes, that eventually had to be chiseled into a movie length. those anecdotes will probably be never heard again after somebody finishes watching the "disc 2 bonus material" that comes with the dvd. plain creepy.
it was amazing to hear these real-life stories from journalists who were bribed and threatened so that they would keep silent about a harmful chemical being used by a company, etc. just crazy stuff. it's like the stuff you'd never really picture happening.
