Why watch the movie The Crime of the Century?
"Exclusive HBO documentary split into two parts, 'The Crime of the Century' is one of those journalistic documentaries that will leave anyone speechless. After all, the excellent documentarian Alex Gibney (‘The Inventor’) dives into the backrooms of the pharmaceutical industries. The reason? The abuse of legal drugs, coming from opioids, that addict and kill people all over the United States territory. With strong stories that show the urgency of this discussion, the documentary drags on a bit too much in some moments -- mainly for those who don't fully understand details of American bureaucracy. But Gibney manages to give a flavorful, and vigorous, rhythm to this criminal investigation in movie format. Without a doubt, shocking and revolting."
