I just finished the book “The Big Short, Inside The Doomsday Machine”. Now that will be a hell of a financial movie.

@gordon,

maybe if you bothered watching the clip you would have noticed that Gekko dios say “greed, for the lack of a better word, is good. Greed works…”

funny how you just don’t remember anything from a movie although you just watched it.

Good list. Some of these I haven’t seen and need to check out.

Another good one that is virtually unheard of is “The Bank”. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0241223/

Barbarians at the Gate doesn’t make the list and Brewsters Millions does.

Sigh.
