Our previous winter course on whistle-blower films focused on real cases as interpreted by actors, providing vivid proof of the number of quality feature films this subject has inspired. Yet, given the unique perspective and narrative directness possible through the documentary format, it is no surprise that some of the best whistle-blowing studies are documentaries. We will view and discuss five cases, shown in chronological order of the actual events: The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers (1971, film made 2009); Semper Fi: Always Faithful (1987, film made 2011); Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2001, film made 2005); We Steal Secrets: The Story of Wikileaks (2010, film made 2013); and Citizenfour (2013, film made 2014). The last two films should create lively class discourse on the complex nature of the whistle-blower and the nationally divided public reaction it evokes.
