The Lost Interview of Steve Jobs finds him at a moment in 1995 when he was fired from Apple and had not yet returned to lead the company to become one of the greatest companies in history. The movie is an extremely captivating glimpse of the man’s raw intelligence and perspectives on life and business. This is an hour-long interview of Steve Jobs in his younger years, long before the iPhone, and a great movie to show to high school students interested in art, science, advanced manufacturing or business.
