It made some 23 million in box office so it didn't need much of a push..
It dropped Du pont's shares by 10% within 7 days!
I wonder how long the effect lasted though.

23 million? I bet it cost more to make the film.

More importantly what else did DuPont do elswhere we are not aware of?

btw the movie was based on research published 3 years earlier in NY times magazine.
Du Pond and 3M had already paid millions in lawsuits and settlements let aside the drop of their shares.

But less than one year's profit right? I call that a slap on the wrist rather than punishment.

Here are Duponts stats

If you sum up the loss in value of shares, and the damages they paid it's much more.

How many thousands of farmers and factories pollute Danube river in Germany along it's route making it the sewage tank it is today? How much each one of those pay for damages?

Here is Livaneli with Yaşar Kemal. If you are not aware of Yaşar Kemal, you have not lived.
