Too Big to Fail

The Big Short is an excellent film about the people who saw it coming. Inside Story is a great documentary with wonderful interview. But this is the ultimate film showing what happened from the perspective of the Treasury Secretary and the people around him. Wonderful screenplay, world star actors everywhere and a great deal of explanation done. Yes, you need to concentrate throughout or you'll miss something, but this is a very underrated gem. My favourite film about the 2008 crisis. Furthermore, once you have watched and understood this, you have absolutely no doubt that the bailout had to happen. They had no choice whatsoever.
