| | Hollymia 05/04/2012 | Brilliant movie about corruption & greed. Business acumen, risk taking, fortunes won & lost & finally coming to terms with what is really important in life.
The book is better by far but only because more detail can be read in the book than can be put into a movie, unless it was to made into a series instead of a single movie. |
