The New "Wall Street" Film

Michael Douglas is back as Gordon Gekko in "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.” We see if greed is still good.

Greed is good, Gordon Gekko told the world, in Oliver Stone’s 1987 Hollywood hit, “Wall Street.”

That was then. Flash forward twenty years, to the eve of the great meltdown, and greed was God.

In Stone’s new film, “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," Michael Douglas is back as Gordon Gekko. Gekko’s out of prison. And the world, Wall Street, are going to hell in a hand basket.

Shia LeBeouf is there. And Josh Brolin. Many billions. And it’s still hard to take your eyes away.
