The Documentary: Tune Out the Noise
We are excited to tell you about Tune Out the Noise, a documentary by Academy Award-winning director Errol Morris. It is now available on YouTube.
It captures the story of how finance became a science and challenged the traditional methods of investing. That, in turn, led to the invention of index funds, the founding of Dimensional Fund Advisors—an investment firm dedicated to implementing the science—and the evolution of client-focused financial advice. These advances have benefited generations of investors. Tune Out the Noise is told through the stories of 15 people, featuring interviews with Nobel Prize-winning economists, financial professionals, and the brain trust behind Dimensional.
The feature-length film has a running time of 88 minutes, and we highly recommend watching it at home on a television. Here is a link to stream it online. We hope you find Tune Out the Noise both educational and entertaining. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on the film.
