Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room

Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room is a documentary that tells the story of one of the biggest corporate scandals in history, in which top executives of America's seventh-largest company, Enron, walked away with over one billion dollars while leaving investors and employees with nothing. The film uses interviews, depositions, and audio and video recordings to show how Enron's executives engaged in fraudulent practices, used mark-to-market accounting to manipulate their financial statements, and created a culture of greed and corruption that ultimately led to the company's downfall. The documentary also explores how Enron exploited California's deregulated energy market during the 2000-2001 electricity crisis, and how the company's strong political connections may have contributed to its success. Through this in-depth look at Enron's scandalous practices, the documentary sheds light on the darker side of corporate culture and raises important questions about ethics in business.
