| HBO's "Too Big To Fail"--I just caught up with it last night; thank you, HBO On Demand--is extraordinarily revealing about the financial crisis. Only its revelations are almost entirely inadvertent. Except that the movie actually depicts something entirely different: failure upon failure. "Too Big To Fail" The Movie isn't the story of how the Three Musketeers saved the global economy. It's a story of how the three didn't see the financial crisis coming; hadn't prepared for it; made mistake after mistake as it was cresting; and then, in their moment of triumph, made their most colossal blunder of all. That, it turns out (whether or not "Too Big To Fail" knows it), is the true story of the financial crisis. |
