The Crash of 1929
The Crash of 1929 (1990) is a documentary, history film directed by Ellen Giffard, Muffie Meyer.
Based on eight years of continued prosperity, presidents and economists alike confidently predicted that America would soon enter a time when there would be no more poverty, no more depressions -- a "New Era" when everyone could be rich. But when reality finally struck, the consequences of such unbound optimism shocked the world.
