People in tune with what happened will be sadden that not much new material was revealed. It really seemed like a vehicle to let people rant about someone we already know has been punished. Furthermore, the central secondary character, a female reporter character he apparently confessed to in between bouts where he was being chastised by her much have been a construct or an 'amalgamous' creation.
It seemed over full with suppositions from people that had no idea about what was really going on and who they felt really needed to be punished as well as Bernie.
The part that I really wanted to see covered in more depth, the failure of the system to keep an eye on these fund managers, received the same coverage as a lawsuit against eleven thousand dollars a four year old girl would get when she would be all grown up (Bernie's Grand daughter).
I bet HBO,(FOX), didn't want to stir up anything with the lack of financial regulation in the US. Also, that the director and the writers weren't free to make the film they wanted.
Which goes to say, we cannot expect any real cutting edge journalism documentaries with an HBO label on it that seriously look at problems with the American Government or interests of the G.O.P.
A really good docudrama could have and should have been made with this cast.
