Director Alex Gibney’s new documentary about Elon Musk premiered out of competition at the Venice Film Festival. The nearly four-hour film is also scheduled to be screened at the Toronto International Film Festival before its official theatrical release on October 16.
Ahead of the premiere, the filmmakers released a 48-second teaser featuring starkly contrasting views on the billionaire. While some commentators describe Musk as a brilliant modern inventor, others characterize him as erratic, ruthless, and overly self-centered. The teaser concludes with footage of a rocket explosion accompanied by the phrase "Elon is a nuclear bomb."
The preview features the new song "Let Me Sell You a Dream" by former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne. Following its theatrical run, the documentary will be made available for streaming on HBO and Max.


Simple Vitamin Shows Surprising Results in Pre-Cancerous Blood Conditions, Study Finds
Today in 02:02Daily high-dose supplementation of vitamin C can significantly reduce mortality risks and help prevent severe medical complications in patients with pre-cancerous blood conditions. Researchers from the Van Andel Institute in the United States and Copenhagen University Hospital in Denmark reached this conclusion following a comprehensive three-year follow-up study. The international "EVITA" trial involved volunteers who were administered 1,000 mg of vitamin C daily over the course of a year, while a control group received a placebo.
Although initial hypotheses suggested vitamin C might directly inhibit abnormal cell proliferation, researchers found its primary benefit lay in strengthening the body, reducing systemic inflammation, and lowering rates of anemia, pneumonia, and internal bleeding. Over the three-year observation period, the vitamin C group exhibited a significantly higher survival rate compared to the placebo group. While experts emphasize that these findings remain preliminary and require larger clinical trials before reshaping formal medical treatment protocols, vitamin C continues to show promising potential in supportive patient care.
