7.5 points. Adapted from real events. In fact, the tobacco company incident can only be regarded as an introduction. The first half of the film is about the choice of human nature when the public interest conflicts with the commercial confidentiality clause, and the second half is to torture the conduct of a real journalist. Specific to the individual, the movie does not give the best or final answer, just like the producer said after the success of the credits: "Win? So what?" As an

aside, I actually don't think the tobacco company's failure is not It's because of the confidentiality clauses, but because of its own arrogance. Threats and intimidation are actually counterproductive, because now you are not asking the other person to "do" something, but to ask him not to do something. "Doing" is predictable, while "doing not" is impossible to estimate. The result of the threat can only make people fight to death. This kind of deep throat should be given a high salary without the right to provide it~~~~

    Really tm wonderful RC's performance is much better than gladiator. It is rare to see such a movie that can portray characters so delicately

    Forbearance is here again. If you watch Russell, you must not miss it... A role similar to Three Days of Dangerous Situation and is far better than Russell or is it really suitable for this kind of role...

The Insider quotes

  • Sharon Tiller: You won.

    Lowell Bergman: Yeah? What did I win?

  • Lowell Bergman: You pay me to go get guys like Wigand, to draw him out. To get him to trust us, to get him to go on television. I do. I deliver him. He sits. He talks. He violates his own fucking confidentiality agreement. And he's only the key witness in the biggest public health reform issue, maybe the biggest, most-expensive corporate-malfeasance case in U.S. history. And Jeffrey Wigand, who's out on a limb, does he go on television and tell the truth? Yes. Is it newsworthy? Yes. Are we gonna air it? Of course not. Why? Because he's not telling the truth? No. Because he is telling the truth. That's why we're not going to air it. And the more truth he tells, the worse it gets!
