IT'LL DO FOR ANTITRUST LAWYERS WHAT RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK DID FOR ARCHEOLOGISTS AND MIDNIGHT RUN FOR SKIP TRACERS: Shooting has begun on Steven Soderbergh's The Informant, an adaptation of Kurt Eichenwald's masterful telling of the ADM lysine price-fixing scandal starring a mustachioed Matt Damon as the titular turncoat, with Scott Bakula and The Soup's Joel McHale as the FBI agents.

Here's the February 2004 This American Life on which you can hear some of Whitacre's recordings and more on this fascinating story. In Soderbergh's hands, this could be awesome.
