Dunno if it's been posted, but HBO has 'Too Big To Fail' to debut on May 23rd.

I saw this on CNBC a lil while ago and had to look further.

My instincts are that it will be a deflection film or at least one that doesn't tell the whole story. It is put on by Hollywood. ::) ::)

Well, watched this crap over the holiday weekend.

It pretty much follows Hank Paulson throughout the film. Interesting that they portray Warren Buffet like a god of sorts.

Just as one would suspect, nothing pointing to what the truth of the matter is. It is pretty much a 'for dummies' type of flick.

Only truth spoken was about how this whole house of cards is built off of faith. Without people believing its real, it would be gone tomorrow.

Quality production, quality actors...should of had Matt Tiabbi do the screenplay.

I thought it was a huge bore. Hank never st-t-t-t-t-t-t-utters and the bankers are portrayed as good guys.
