Product: The Insider [VHS] (1999)
Rating: 5.0
Beware to whistle blowers!
This story is a cautionary tale to those who go up against big, powerful corporations. Jeffrey Wigand went up against the tobacco companies and lost just about everything but his integrity. I was absolutly riveted by the performances and the story. This the first movie I'd seen Russell Crowe in and it's not hard to see why he was nominated for an Oscar for this role. His portrayal of a complex person in a tight spot was great. This movie will keep you on the edge of your seat and pondering the dilemmas the characters face for long after.
