THE CORPORATION - fim reveiw
THE CORPORATION
thecorporation.com/

If you haven't caught this fantastic expose on what has happened to our world as a result of allowing corporations to become our gods, our slave masters, and the overlords of our governments, you have to rent or buy the DVD and watch it - it's a serious eye-opener!

The film is available on DVD at www.hellocoolstuff.com/ for those interested in buying it online. For the impressive reviews of this Vancouver-made film, just click thecorporation.com/index.php . You can also view the trailers here thecorporation.com/index.php .

THE CORPORATION explores the nature and spectacular rise of the dominant institution of our time. Footage from pop culture, advertising, TV news, and corporate propaganda, illuminates the corporation's grip on our lives. Taking its legal status as a "person" to its logical conclusion, the film puts the corporation on the psychiatrist's couch to ask "What kind of person is it?" Provoking, witty, sweepingly informative, The Corporation includes forty interviews with corporate insiders and critics - including Milton Friedman, Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, and Michael Moore - plus true confessions, case studies and strategies for change.

Winner of 24 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS, 10 of them AUDIENCE CHOICE AWARDS including the AUDIENCE AWARD for DOCUMENTARY in WORLD CINEMA at the 2004 SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL. The long-awaited DVD, available now in Australia and coming in March to North America, contains over 8 hour of additional footage.

The film is based on the book The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power by Joel Bakan.
