The documentary starts with an analysis of prevalent deregulations in the finance industry in the early 1980s. The dangerous aspects of these decisions are explained in the film, including mortgage-backed securities and credit default swaps. The film examines the economic bubble and how rising real estate prices encouraged banks to lend money without first determining the borrower\u2019s creditworthiness. In 2007 and 2008, subprime loan defaults caused investment banks like Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns to fail, while the government bailed out other institutions like AIG. The film illustrates how senior bank executives disregarded established guidelines, which caused the world stock market to collapse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Genre<\/strong>: Documentary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Director<\/strong>: Charles Ferguson<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Narrated by<\/strong>: Matt Damon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Key Takeaway<\/strong>: The far-reaching consequences of financial corruption and the need for transparency and regulation in the financial industry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Language<\/strong>: English<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Budget<\/strong>: \u20b917 crore (approx.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Earnings<\/strong>: \u20b964 crore (approx.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Available On<\/strong>: Netflix<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-5-rogue-trader-1999\">5.

The autobiography \u201cRogue Trader: How I Bought the Barings Bank and Shook the Financial World\u201d served as the inspiration for the film. The film starts with the story of a young banker named Nick Lesson, portrayed by Ewan McGregor, who works for Barings Bank and is assigned to Singapore to oversee derivatives trading at the Singapore International Monetary Exchange. Through his aggressive trading, he generated significant profits right away. Afterwards, he started to lose money, but instead of disclosing it, he kept it hidden in a secret account and intended to use riskier wagers to win it back. After placing a large bet on the potential stability of the Japanese market, he lost a significant amount of money\u2014roughly 827 million Euros\u2014when the Japanese stock market experienced a correction in 1995 due to an earthquake in Japan. This event ultimately caused Barings Bank to fail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Genre<\/strong>: Biography, Drama<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Director<\/strong>: James Dearden<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Starring<\/strong>: Ewan McGregor, Anna Friel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Key Takeaway<\/strong>: The dangers of unchecked power and the devastating impact one individual\u2019s actions can have on the financial world.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Language<\/strong>: English<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Budget<\/strong>: \u20b9105 crore (approx.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Earnings<\/strong>: \u20b913 crore (approx.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Available On<\/strong>: Amazon Prime Video, Tubi<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-6-wall-street\">6.
