"Inside Job": Documentary Investigates the Financial Crisis (video)

The trailer for Charles Ferguson's new documentary "Inside Job" has been making its way around the web. The film won the top award at the Cannes Film Festival this year.

Roger Ebert called the the film "devastating" and summed it up this way:

"From Roosevelt until Reagan, the American economy enjoyed 40 years of stability, prosperity and growth. Beginning with Reagan's moves against financial regulation, that sound base has been progressively eroded. The crucial federal error (in administrations of both parties) was to allow financial institutions to trade on their own behalf. Today many large trading banks are betting against their own customers."

"Inside Job" is due out in October. Check out the movie trailer.
