Eliot Spitzer on New Yorj Magazine coverThe New York Observer reports that Oscar winning filmmaker Alex Gibney is working on a documentary about Eliot Spitzer, the New York governor who was forced to resign after his predilection for semi-pricey hookers was revealed last month. Gibney is collaborating with Peter Elkind, who wrote the book that inspired Gibney’s Enron doc The Smartest Guys in the Room, to produce a book and a movie simultaneously.  Is the public really really so hungry for more information about this story, after so many weeks of exhaustive cable news coverage and loosely-related hooker tie ins across the infotainment spectrum? Is there anything left to say that wasn’t summed up by the New York Magazine cover at right?
