Inside Job (2010 Full Documentary Movie)

Inside Job is a 2010 American documentary film, directed by Charles Ferguson, about the late 2000s financial crisis.

The global financial meltdown that took place in Fall of 2008 caused millions of job and home losses and plunged the United States into a deep economic recession.

This documentary provides a detailed examination of the elements that led to the collapse and identifies key financial and political players.

Director Charles Ferguson conducts a wide range of interviews and traces the story from the United States to China to Iceland to several other global financial hot spots.

Ferguson, who began researching in 2008, says the film is about "the systemic corruption of the United States by the financial services industry and the consequences of that systemic corruption". In five parts, the film explores how changes in the policy, environment and banking practices helped create the financial crisis.

This is 11 years old and absolutely nothing has changed.

*EDIT* Correction. I wasn't being honest. A lot has changed. It's gotten worse.

Who is watching this in 2021 and still witnessing the corruption

[TranquilAssassin]

We need to get a sequel for this film because this is still clearly happening in the financial industry

"I think that is a very unfortunate thing to have on email." Said with a straight face. I am DEAD laughing

Man this guy’s got some stones! The way he put these idiots in the hot seat so different from most journalism. No fluff, no personal put downs, just hard and direction questions.

Watching this 10 years later, it's amazing that 90% of the people that lead to this financial crisis ARE STILL INFLUENCING THE COUNTRY'S FINANCIAL DECISIONS?!?

[hunkybrain]

It's been more than a decade, yet I keep coming back to this documentary...

[desartster]

We live in a world where criminality is rewarded and honesty questioned.

That scene where Glenn Hubbard snarls at the interviewer ‘this is not a deposition’ then ‘give it your best shot’. The sheer arrogance.

“Alan Greenspan declined to be interviewed for this film.”
“Larry Summers declined to be interviewed for this film.”
“Ben Bernanke declined to be interviewed for this film.”
“Henry Paulson declined to be interviewed for this film.”
“Timothy Geithner declined to be interviewed for this film.”

Well watching those “consultants” squirm did offer a little bit of satisfaction.

"To treat this disease, you should prescribe this drug." Turns out doctor makes 80% of personal income from manufacture of this drug. Does not bother you?

The um... The um... That's because of...

He literally made him speechless I love it.

Your uploading this is a great service to humanity

Eleven years on and nothing has changed

[tonykeogh]

I remember this unfolding. It was disgraceful and should never have happened. I am staggered watching this to realise that it was actually 10 times worse than I actually realised. Some of those decision makers are simply despicable people and should have been seriously punished.

[declanmckeown]

got assigned this for class, enjoyed it way more then I expected, now I just gotta write 800 words on it lol

[derk]

All Americans need to watch this before the sequel comes out

01:44:04 "Why should a financial engineer be paid 4-100x more than a real engineer. Real engineers build bridges. Financial engineer build dreams, and when those dreams turn out to be nightmares, other people pay for it.", Andrew Sheng, Chief Advisor, China Bank Regulatory Commission.

Harvard professors received a call for an interview. Reporter: We are making a video about your great contributions to the world. Can we have some time with you for an interview ?
During the interview: How much did you get paid ? Do you think there is conflict of interest ?
Professor: uhmmm uhmmm you have 3 minutes !

This movie should have been called "The Great American Heist". This is a great documentary!

[hampuskarrlander]

This documentary, much like The Big Short, leaves you with a feeling of disgust. But it also leaves you with a certain feeling of dread of what's to come, considering the state of the world
