Trainwreck: The Cult of American Apparel shines a light on how a brand that pitched itself as ethical and empowering became ensnared in a culture of abuse rooted in unchecked leadership. In its 54-minute runtime, the film offers chilling insider testimony and psychological insight—particularly in its powerful closing reveal of previously hidden legal cases. Yet critics note it falls short of exploring deeper racial or systemic issues.
If you’re interested in how this fits into wider conversations on corporate cults, other Trainwreck titles, or the documentary’s filmmaking choices, I'd be happy to dive deeper!
