  "account": "Elon Musk has expressed strong disapproval of Alex Gibney's documentary about him, calling it a \"hit piece.\" A 48-second teaser trailer for the film has now been released, showcasing Musk's actions and opinions in a provocative manner. The trailer features commentary on Musk ranging from \"greatest capitalist in history\" to \"fascist,\" set against the backdrop of rocket launches and failed launches. The title of the documentary, \"Musk,\" is displayed over the explosions. Despite the film's nearly four-hour runtime, Musk's concerns seem to have been addressed by the Venice International Film Festival, where the documentary premiered. The teaser trailer is available on YouTube for those who cannot attend the Venice premiere, which will also screen in select theaters on October 16.",
  "summary": "The teaser for Alex Gibney's Elon Musk documentary is here. It promises an \"unflinching look at earth's most unchecked man.\"",
