Libby, Montana2006
A small company town in northwestern Montana is beset by the worst case of a widespread toxic contaminant in U.S. history. Now, the U.S. government has determined that nearly one quarter of the residents have some form of asbestos-related lung abnormality. LIBBY, MONTANA is the story of the American dream gone horribly wrong.

This documentary was very sobering. Indeed! I had no idea that the issue regarding aspestes was so recent. The makers of the film did a great job of unfolding the story. Unfortunately, in the end, Jim the warrior in a sense was wrongly held accountable for the short comings of the government buracracy and the government not demanding the perpatrator Gracey to pay out of his pocket or be indited for the murder of those 100's of people. ......No, like in every similar travesty similar to this, e.g., Spokane Indian Tribe being exposed to uranium-causing many deaths, or the Wall Street cartel blatantly robbing people of their pensions and homes, or the Exon valdez oil spill and the BP devastating debauchery in Louisiana of the wild life, the government acts as a referree. They say you win. but don't follow through with reparations. They pay as little as possible for repairs. And they let the rich money mongers keep their holdings. I would like to see a sequel of this movie showing how Gracey suffered for their lies and deception. and murder...... .GREAT MOVIE!
