not as bad as some say
This is an interesting movie which resists the easy temptation to paint Garfield as an avaricious vulture and Jorgenson as the saintly victim. It is even-handed in portraying both the cruelty that adaptation and changing times impose on people, and yet the necessity to do so. (Garfield: “I’m sure that the last buggy whip company in America made the best damn buggy whips in the world.”) Jorgenson makes a moving and impassioned speech to the stockholders on the themes of caring and compassion, which completely wins the viewer over; no way do we feel that Garfield can respond, but he does, and very convincingly. One doesn’t find this kind of ambiguity and even treatment very often; people like things black & white (e.g. Oliver Stone’s “Wall Street”), which is perhaps why this film didn’t make it big. I liked it. Danny DeVito is always worth watching, and Peck does a good job too. Unfortunately Penelope Ann Miller is not convincing in sultry mode.

The Capitalist Question.
Danny DeVito gives one of his most entertaining performances as the asset-stripper from hell.

The movie is a fairly predictable Hollywood cocktail of comedy, morality and romance, but is raised above the ordinary by DeVito’s performance and a thought-provoking script.

DeVito has found a metal-bashing firm that is down on its luck. There’s more money to be made from buying it up, selling off the assets and closing it down, than there is from keeping it going. That’s the short-term corporate-raiders’ view anyway. Trouble is; the firm employs lots of people whose livelihoods depend on their regular pay-cheques. It’s a family-run factory that is practically the sole employer in a one-horse town. It’s owner – played by a suitably fading Gregory Peck – knows this, and feels a moral responsibility towards the workforce that goes beyond simply maximising profits. He sees the staff every day. He knows many personally and understands their daily struggles.

The conflicting arguments are well presented at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting. Many questions are raised about the purpose of capitalism in a supposedly civilised society. Does a business exist merely to enrich those who invest in it, or do shareholders enter into a covenant of obligation towards those who labour in their name?

DeVito comes over more as a likable rogue than a true speculator, which was probably necessary to satisfy the comedic elements of the movie. He is shown as frivolous and playful towards his own staff. Whereas in truth, he would be unlikely to offer anything like such an avuncular stance. His sting is partially pulled by a female business lawyer employed by Peck. A romantic under-current develops between her and DeVito, which she typically attempts to exploit.

The movie has some good gags, and some excellent moments that are both skilfully acted and funny. Yet the fundamental questions about capitalism remain unanswered, and the summation is unsatisfactory. Perhaps there is no easy answer. The ending is something of a cop-out that attempts to deliver a feel-good infusion. Probably 99 times out of a hundred, the result would be a disaster for the workforce, but so much reality would compromise the other elements of the play.

It’s well worth a watch for whatever motivates you.
