I'm only 20 minutes in and this seems like the quintessential /biz/ movie
>Ewan McGregor is a futures trader who gets sent to Singapore to start his bank's trading floor
>Bank won't give him a budget so he has to hire Chinese teenagers off the street
>One of them fucks up and sells 20k worth of contracts when she was supposed to buy
>Ewan tries to hide the losses by gambling his clients' money away
>Blows 100% of the clients' margin
>Now only has the Bank's money to play with
Is there a more JUST movie than this? Anyone else seen it?

Glengary is more about sales than trading. Otherwise, good picks.

Not really a biz movie. More a morality tale against trading really. Its based in a true story.

Stumbled upon it the other night upon a another anons recommendation. Glad i watched it. It's a great film.

biz movie ratings...

God tier: Rogue trader, wall street
Good tier: boiler room, glengarry, margin call, the pursuit of hapyness
Normie tier: wolf of wall street, the big short

I wont ruin it. But google nick leeson after. The true story is actually more interesting than the movie. It was one of those movies they push out quickly after real life events, not a terrrible movie but not the best imo. British movies always suck a bit production wise.

Personally I don't mind spoilers. If a movie is dependent on its ending to make it good, then it has no lasting value. The real meat and taters of a movie is the process that it goes along GETTING to that notable scene or moment. That's where the real magic lies.

Good ratings. Wolf was so cringe I couldn't even finish it.

Maybe have a look at documentaries like Floored, and The Pit. They seem authentic.

watching the doc on Nick Leeson, probably more interesting than the movie.
