Doc director Robert Greenwald, known for such films as "Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism" and "Uncovered: The Whole Truth About the Iraq War" has shifted his sights to the retail giant, Wal-Mart for a new film currently in production, "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price". David Halbfinger reports on the new movie in The New York Times:
The diminutive Mr. Greenwald, 61, is leading this assault on the retailing behemoth of Bentonville, Ark., from a converted hot-sheets motel in Culver City, Calif. There, where MGM executives once conducted their trysts, he and a dozen or so young producers and editors are compiling digital video from interviewing teams across the country, while spreading the word through advocacy groups and labor unions to invite whistleblowers to come forward.Their plan is to depict what they and a growing number of critics perceive to be Wal-Mart's sins against society: unfair competition and erosion of the fabric of communities; exploitation of its American workers, and of the government welfare programs many rely on to supplement their wages and benefits; union busting; reliance on suppliers with sweatshops overseas; and environmental negligence - among others.
