“美国政府应对疫情没尽全力”；
“科学家每天都在敲警钟，
美国政府却什么都没做”；
“真相令人作呕”

据美国《华盛顿邮报》网站当地时间14日报道，曾获奧斯卡奖的纪录片导演亚历克斯·吉布尼与另外两名导演共同执导的纪录片《完全可控（Totally Under Control）》（暂译）近日上映。
这部纪录片对美国应对新冠肺炎疫情的方式提出深刻、清晰的批评，揭示特朗普政府在抗击疫情工作中的谎言与腐败。纪录片指出，从华盛顿州首例已知病例开始，美国政府的误判、错失机会和仓促应对就开始了。
"Totally Under Control" is a new documentary codirected by Academy Award winner Alex Gibney that takes an in-depth look at the U.S. government’s early response to the coronavirus. The film bills itself as "the definitive account of the Trump administration's incompetence, corruption and denial in the face of this global pandemic."
The documentary, made under a cloak of secrecy over the last five months, includes interviews with scientists, medical professionals, government officials and others insiders.
Netizens were quick to respond both in China and abroad after the first trailer spread on social media platforms, not long after Trump announced that he and First Lady Melania Trump tested positive for COVID-19.
擅长执导犯罪片的亚历克斯·吉布尼曾在采访中表示，“该片最终看起来更像是一部犯罪电影。”他认为，身处疫情中的人们在倍感无助的时候，能够一起调查和探索这个故事，对他们来说无疑是一种莫大的激励。
Gibney's work often features wrongdoing, and in an interview with Mashable he said of the new documentary, "To me, this is a crime story." He added that "to be able to investigate and explore this story together was hugely energizing," as people initially felt so helpless in the middle of the pandemic lockdown.
据悉，亚历克斯曾凭借《开往暗处的出租车》获得第80届奥斯卡金像奖最佳纪录长片，凭借《滴血成金：硅谷血检大骗局》获得第72届美国编剧工会电影奖最佳纪录片剧本；其作品《安然：房间里最聪明的人》入围第78届奥斯卡金像奖最佳纪录长片，《零日》入围第66届柏林国际电影节金熊奖最佳影片。
