DVD : The Corporation [2004] (REGION 1) (NTSC)


This two-disc set is a wonderful package about the American outfits that run large chunks of the world, essentially the parts that have plenty of consumers with money to buy products, that is.

The headmaster feels that despite the boys' obvious intelligence, they lack a certain `flair' against their public school competition. So he recruits a young Oxbridge graduate straight from teacher training school to polish the boys ... Read More:
