The Company Men (2010)

As the 2010 recession tightens its grip, a corporate drama unfolds within the vast empire of GTX Corporation. High-flying Bobby Walker, living the American Dream, finds his silver Porsche, suburban mansion, and beautiful family threatened as he is swept up in the devastating wave of layoffs that crashes through GTX. Stripped of his job, Bobby is thrust into the harsh reality of unemployment, confronting a seismic shift in his family's lifestyle, the loss of his home, and a bruising blow to his self-esteem. This ensemble drama weaves together the stories of not just Bobby, but also his colleagues, fellow victims of the ruthless downsizing. Among them is Phil Woodward, a seasoned executive who has climbed the corporate ladder from the factory floor to the top echelons. Now, he is thrust back into the job market, competing against men half his age for survival. In the midst of this corporate turmoil, stands Gene McClary, the second-in-command at GTX. He is the voice of dissent, challenging the massive layoffs as he watches his friends and colleagues fall prey to the financial crisis. "The Company Men" is a poignant exploration of the effects of economic downturn on the American upper class, painting a stark portrait of corporate ruthlessness and the human struggle for dignity amidst chaos.
