Classic film documenting the stand taken by Jeffrey Wigand, a former chief scientist at Brown & Williamson Tobacco and the efforts of the tobaccco industry to silence him. Starring Al Pacino as Lowell Bergman, the 60 Minutes producer who exposes the story, Russell Crowe (as Wigand), Christopher Plummer and Michael Gambon.
A real antidote to most based-on-a-true-story films, this is a fascinating, compelling film. A must see for everyone in the smoking cessation field.
