Synopsis:
Dagny Taggart (Taylor Schilling) runs Taggart Transcontinental, the largest remaining railroad company in America, with intelligence, courage and integrity, despite the systematic disappearance of her best and most competent workers. She is drawn to industrialist Henry Rearden (Grant Bowler), one of the few men whose genius and commitment to his own ideas match her own. Rearden's super-strength metal alloy, Rearden Metal, holds the promise that innovation can overcome the slide into anarchy. Using the untested Rearden Metal, they rebuild the critical Taggart rail line in Colorado and pave the way for oil titan Ellis Wyatt (Graham Beckel) to feed the flame of a new American Renaissance. Hope rises again, when Dagny and Rearden discover the design of a revolutionary motor based on static electricity - in an abandoned engine factory - more proof to the sinister theory that the "men of the mind" (thinkers, industrialists, scientists, artists, and other innovators) are "on strike" and vanishing from society.

a multipartite movie originated by rupert murdoch...as you will recall, fox makes these...intended as an apology of rands argument in her massive book...sometimes classed as borderline science fiction...that the same corporate bucaneers who have just dragged the country to its knees should be freed of such annoying interferences as taxes, regulations, and democracy...one of her principle fans and a personal friend was none other than the big A himself, Alan Greenspan, who warmed so passionately to her ideas that he managed in great part to actually remove those pesky interferences and unleash an almost perfect storm on wall street...take a bow, Al...i give you atlas shrugged...or rupert never sleeps...ciao.

Wooden acting with cue-card dialogue. Read the book -- it's more exciting.
