Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room

What a great documentary. I watched it the other night (on HDNet Movies, owned by Mark Cuban, who also produced the movie - synergy, my friend) and thought it showed really well what a little greed could do to people. While the executives look horrible, what really got me was the cavalier attitude of the energy traders and how easily folks at California power plants went along with what they were told. I mean, you’d shut down your plant because some guy at Enron told you to? Really? It’s that easy? Truly unbelievable.
