WINNER
OF 26 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS! 10 Audience Choice Awards including
the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.
Provoking, witty, stylish and sweepingly
informative, THE CORPORATION explores the nature and spectacular
rise of the dominant institution of our time. Part film and
part movement, The Corporation is transforming audiences and
dazzling critics with its insightful and compelling analysis.
Taking its status as a legal "person" to the logical
conclusion, the film puts the corporation on the psychiatrist's
couch to ask "What kind of person is it?" The Corporation
includes interviews with 40 corporate insiders and critics
- including Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Milton Friedman, Howard
Zinn, Vandana Shiva and Michael Moore - plus true confessions,
case studies and strategies for change.
"AN OVERWHELMING AMOUNT OF OUTSTANDING
EXTRAS, there is basically another 6-hour (!) documentary
included." MovieFreak
Along with the groundbreaking 145-minute
theatrical version of the film, the two-disc DVD has eight
hours of never-before-seen footage. In addition to two commentary
tracks, deleted scenes, and Q's-and-A's, 165 new clips and
updates are sorted "by person" and "by topic."
