The John Wayne Principle

A searing portrait of the insidious attractions of corporate life, The John Wayne Principle tells the story a cynical, anti-establishment trust-fund kid who is picked to succeed his father as CEO of a multinational corporation. Instead of turning down the post, as his ambitious, business-minded sister had expected, he decides to sign on for a year, sending the company’s stock into a tailspin. His sister’s attempts to undermine his tenure only serve to fuel his enthusiasm for the job, and, as their sibling rivalry takes on sexual-political overtones, one is left to wonder if this rebel riding
rough-shod on the company wants to break or break in the system.
