The Program

British director Stephen Frears loves a scandal. He revels in discovering what makes humans tick, lie and cheat, and in focusing his lens on Lance Armstrong, he has one helluva juicy subject. The Program is an impeccably-performed, well-oiled machine of a movie. As brisk and bracing as a bike ride itself.
