Pakula, Fonda, Hume Cronyn - wizards of the craft everywhere in this pic, and a story with teeth. Told with restraint and focus, broad themes with impact made clear on the macro and micro scales - truly worth seeing - and relevant in every financial season.


Rollover

It is amazing how a movie 30 years old is just as plausible today... if you just add a few zeros! The acting is average but the plot is playing out around the world four years after the 2008 crash. Real asset accumulation and fiat currency debasement are in full swing. A good movie for a business student. Most people will tell you that this kind of thing just won't happen. Remember that gold sold for about $250 per oz. in 1981 and it now sells for nearly $1700. It is happening as we speak.
