The Armstrong Lie (2013)

Film · 2013 · 124 min · R · Documentary

The world wanted to believe him. So did the camera.

In 2009, Alex Gibney was hired to make a film about Lance Armstrong's comeback to cycling. The project was shelved when the doping scandal erupted, and re-opened after Armstrong's confession. The Armstrong Lie picks up in 2013 and presents a riveting, insider's view of the unraveling of one of the most extraordinary stories in the history of sports. As Lance Armstrong says himself, "I didn't live a lot of lies, but I lived one big one."

Directed by Alex Gibney

Starring Lance Armstrong, Betsy Andreu, Frankie Andreu, Reed Albergotti, Johan Bruyneel, Daniel Coyle, Michele Ferrari, Michael Bloomberg
