To filmmaker Gibney, opioid crisis is Crime of the Century - New Delhi Times - India s Only International Newspaper

May 6, 2021 Share Not unexpectedly given the subject matter, HBO’s two-part documentary “The Crime of the Century” opens with a body bag. It contained a man from San Diego his remains carried away in the predawn hours after overdosing on fentanyl one of nearly a half million Americans to die from opioid abuse since 2001. Filmmaker Alex Gibney quickly widens the lens, however, for an explanation of how the drugs that caused the crisis came to be, how companies aggressively promoted and distributed them and how the government failed to act swiftly and effectively to save lives. The story is exhaustive and often sickening, its scope recalling the examinations Gibney and his team have given in the past to Enron, to Scientology and, most recently, to the Trump administration’s response to COVID-19. “The Crime of the Century” will be shown Monday and Tuesday.

Review: HBO s Crime Of The Century about the opioid crisis

The Crime Of The Century packs an incredible amount of striking, heartbreaking information as it charts the opioid crisis in the U.S. The HBO documentary is divided into two two-hour installments. The length can feel overwhelming because of the scope, but writer and director Alex Gibney’s challenging exploration of the subject matter justifies the runtime. The docuseries dives into the history of how pharmaceutical companies began and fueled the crisis in the 1990s; the duplicity of the healthcare industry; and the government’s failure to stop the drug push. Over the last two decades, opioid overdose-related deaths totaled nearly 500,000, according to the CDC.

The story is exhaustive and often sickening, its scope recalling the examinations Gibney and his team have given in the past to Enron, to Scientology and, most recently, to the Trump administration s response to COVID-19. “The Crime of the Century” will be shown Monday and Tuesday. “I felt that the whole idea of the crisis was being treated as if it were a spontaneous event that just couldn t have been helped,” Gibney said. “What was missing was the element of crime, in particular the sort of broad, over-arching conspiracy.” If you put everything together, “it s almost like a murder mystery,” he said. “In some way, it is a murder mystery.”
