Banksters assassinating national leaders, financing revolutions, controlling the world!?!

From Wikipedia:

The International is a 2009 action thriller film[6] directed by Tom Tykwer and written by Eric Warren Singer. Starring Clive Owen and Naomi Watts, the film follows an Interpol agent and an American district attorney who jointly investigate corruption within the IBBC, a fictional merchant bank based in Luxembourg. It serves organized crime and corrupt governments as a banker and as an arms broker. The bank’s ruthless managers assassinate potential threats, including their own employees.

Inspired by the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) scandal of the 1980s, the film raises concerns about how global finance affects international politics across the world. Production began in Berlin in September 2008, including the construction of a life-size replica of New York’s Guggenheim Museum for the film’s central shootout scene. The film opened the 59th Berlin International Film Festival on 5 February 2009. The Rotten Tomatoes critical consensus praised the action sequences and locations but criticized the plot.[7]

We gather on our Friday film nights at 6 PM for set-up and social hour, order pizza at 6:15, and we start showing a few newsreels at 7, then on to the feature film. We don’t charge to watch the films, but we do ask for a small donation to cover film rental/license fees.

Lots of interesting discussion afterwards, and maybe we’ll decide on what to show the following week…
