The Hollywood Reporter gets an early look at Alex Gibney's upcoming documentary on Elon Musk:
None of what we have seen and thought about Musk can fully ready us for what the filmmaker has done here — an adventurous but methodical movie grounded in the thesis that, as he sees it, a dangerous huckster is stealthily aggregating power to exploit us, primarily by centralizing and controlling massive amounts of data. Gibney’s basic take on Musk is that he’s a confidence man whose power comes only from the stock market and disappears the minute we see through the facade of sales pitches — but can do a whole lot of damage until that happens.
