A Tale of Two Cities: The Circuit City Story is a documentary produced, directed, and edited by Tom Wulf. The documentary chronicles the entire 60-year history of the Richmond-based retailer, Circuit City. The documentary traces the defunct retailer from its humble beginnings as the family-owned Wards TV, to its rise to become the nation's largest specialty retailer of consumer electronics, to its downhill slide into bankruptcy and liquidation in 2009.

According to its website, the film "tells the tale of two "Cities:" one that went from good to great, and the other that went from great to gone."
