#4(P.S. I'm not sure if hn readers who haven't seen it would like it; I thought it was two hours of high gloss propaganda, and I am undecided on the issue in general.)

#5Regardless of the content of the movie, what's the deal with linking to a Hulu page which offers little more than a player for this 2 hour and 24 minute movie? The entire "description" on this page is a single sentence and there's no supporting information on who made this film or why it's being linked to on HN. Can the OP or anyone who's seen the film share their opinion of it?
The movie is an indictment of the corporation as a "legal person." In my opinion, it conflated a lot of general adverse phenomenon associated with collective action and the consequences of corporate personhood.

The movie is very popular in some circles, enough so that I can understand why the OP did not add more of a description. (I assume he wanted to just tell people that it now exists for viewing on hulu.) The movie is an indictment of the corporation as a "legal person." In my opinion, it conflated a lot of general adverse phenomenon associated with collective action and the consequences of corporate personhood.
Everyone is free to think what they want.
The privatization of the Bolivian water supply was the most poignant moment for me.
