FreakonomicsAlex Gibney, Morgan Spurlock, Rachel Grady, Eugene Jarecki, Seth Gordon, Heidi Ewing

Does someone called John have a better shot at a successful life than someone called Shaniqua? Why do sumo wrestlers cheat? Can legalizing abortion make the crime rate drop? And why do so many drug dealers live at home with their moms? Freakonomics uses economic theories to analyse the craziest questions. In six chapters, each shot by a different director, it treats six cases. Just like the book (by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner) on which it was based, this film turns things upside down. Provoking, entertaining and often hilarious.
