14. SCREWBALL
Like Billy Corben’s earlier documentaries Cocaine Cowboys and The U, his latest film explores the peculiar culture of Miami, Florida, where athletes, entrepreneurs and drug dealers intermingle. Ostensibly the story of Major League Baseball’s Biogenesis scandal, in which multiple players were implicated for using performance-enhancing drugs, Screwball is really about sports stars and businessmen who cut corners, eager to fast-forward to the part of their lives where they’re rich, famous, and partying in beachfront mansions.
