They
continued this with making speeches at conferences under the WTO banner
- the main piece on the DVD is when they demonstrate the clothing of the
future - the management leisure suit - which has an upward appendage
worn around the waist which will carry informational devices to allow
the wearer to keep in contact with his workers - looking very much like
something very rude! But being taken seriously by the conference
delegates. The Yes Men are concerned that if what they have to
offer is being accepted without it being commented on as being stupid
then what rubbish can real companies get away with without being
questioned.
There
are a few other similar types of stunts depicted as they try to expose
the unfair practices that they believe the WTO is party to.
Is
It Any Good?
It's
an interesting documentary whose subject is sufficiently intriguing to
maintain interest throughout. The amazing audacity of the Yes
Men's main front guy who really does look convincing and speaks with
enough authority on his subjects to make the wacky stuff he comes up
with later on seem fairly convincing as well - and of course the
conference delegates are under the impression that he is a real
representative of the WTO and aren't expecting a spoof.
ANY
SPECIAL FEATURES?
Commentary
track from the two Yes Men and the three directors; four deleted scenes.
