Glenn Hubbard, former chief economic advisor to Bush, does his best to remain slippery. The talking heads found defending our culture of economic amorality are emblematic of the problem but hardly the worst of the culprits (most of those declined to be interviewed, natch). Among the “friendly witnesses� are Paul Volcker, George Soros, Barney Frank, Eliot Spitzer and Raghuram Rajan, the former IMF chief economist whose warning flag was dismissed. Intriguing sidelines include discussion of the psychology and brain chemistry informing Wall Street’s vice-ridden decisions, and business academia’s blase attitude to conflicts of interest. Still, the blunt impacts of this recession post-mortem are all

too familiar: the endangered middle class, gutted retirement funds, lost jobs in the tens of millions, and, looking ahead, an estimated total of 15 million home foreclosures. Meanwhile, as Ferguson notes with quiet anger, those responsible walked away with millions in personal compensation. Rated PG-13 for some drug and sex-related material. One hour, 49 minutes. — Peter Canavese Weekly critic Peter Canavese awarded three stars to the “charming� British film “Tamara Drewe.� To read the review, go to PaloAltoOnline.com/movies.
