Client 9: The Rise and Fall of Eliot Spitzer
So what does a political sex scandal in New York state and the 2008 worldwide financial meltdown have in common? A helluva lot more than you think, at least as posited by Alex Gibney in his extremely well made, intelligent, entertaining and infuriating 2010 documentary, Client 9: The Rise and Fall of Eliot Spitzer. Depending on your own political views, you might find this documentary to be somewhat one-sided, but if you can put your allegiances aside for a little bit and take in the facts and actually think about them, you may find out something very interesting about the people whom we somehow put in charge of our country. Or maybe when this movie is all said and done, it was just preaching to the choir the whole time, as you nod your head in agreement with the film. But in any case, this is an excellent documentary, and very much worth watching.
