Have you watched Margin Call? It feels like it knows its stuff so kind of plays like a docudrama.

anything that bashes Keynesians and promotes Austrian economics is good to go.
hopefully it's putting the Fed on blast

I'll watch it eventually but not yet. That would probably give me nightmares. A little too close to home work-wise.

Margin Call is highly underrated. It is a close to how real corporate culture works as I have seen.

Maxed Out
It's about how credit card companies operate and who they target first, the end game for many people and how a handful of people have been fighting thousands owed to a collection agency that was the result of fraud....that the credit card companies don't seem to care about. It's an eye opening film for sure....

Great movie...accurate, but fiction.
Much better than Big Short.

Margin Call is one of my favorite movies of all time.
I also like 'Too Big to Fail' on HBO. Not a documentary, but an HBO film on the whole thing.

The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of The World by Niall Ferguson
And of course there's this classic:
Make Mine Freedom (1948)

This. Great movie.
Like McCaigBro said above, in the same docu-drama category, I also recommend the HBO movie Too Big to Fail, based of the book.

I love Margin Call. Is it streaming anywhere?
Posted on 2/1/17 at 7:41 pm to GetCocky11
Not on Netflix or the streaming Amazon video.

Hank: Five Years From The Brink is on Netflix right now
inside job is a good one too. slim pickings on streaming networks right now. apparently everyone loves to bitch about wall street but doesn't feel the need to educate themselves about it

If you don't want to hear about how religion may not be how you think it should be, you can fast forward that part. And you may not agree with this film but I'm glad I saw it.
