An excellent book tells the whole sorry story of the Sacklers and Purdue.
Empire of Pain.
By Keefe I think who had been working on this for many years.
Great title. Great book. Probably the basis for the movie.
Even pharmacists and medicos were shocked at the all pervasive depth of the conspiracy , there are enough real conspiracies to go around to bother with the rest of the self professed.

From the trailer it appears as if it follows on from or is a precis of a few other similar, but older (2021?), 2 parts documentaries along a similar vein from HBO (I think also available on Foxtel)... The Crime of the Century
