Synopsis: A fired tobacco executive blows the whistle on deceptive practices and outright lies perpetrated by the tobacco industry. Defying a confidentiality agreement, he is interviewed by 60 Minutes' Mike Wallace only to have the network's corporate parent company quash the interview for fear of a legal judgment that could impact their stock and adversely affect a corporate merger in the works.

Comment: Based on the Vanity Fair Article titled, "The Man Who Knew Too Much" by Marie Brenner.

SBD Review: 4 1/2 stars
