Fianncial Movies to Watch

Monday 8/31/2026

 

The Smartest Guys in the Room is free on Amazon prime.  Narrated by Peter Coyote, it has aqctual footage of the Enron execs. This is a must to understand the motivation for the SARBOX act. 

Margin Call is a look at the 2008 sub prime crisis, available for rent on Amazon.

The  Big Short  is very well based on the true story of the outsiders who saw the sub-prime crisis coming and profited from it, great acting by Christian Bale who played race driver Ken Miles in Ford vs Ferrari.

War Dogs uses the names of two guys who tried to game the Pentagon bidding system for war supplies in the Mid-East. A zany story but quite accurate. 

Ethics and Classics

The Godfather  I and II is on  Paramount Plus. Now 50 uyears old, hard to believe, much more than a gangster movie, classic scenes and lines.

Casablanca, the classic on every ten best movies ever list, again classic scenes and lines
