Money is all around us; its on television, its in the news, hopefully in our wallets and of course, in the movies! There are tons of films that focus on the idea of cash, money, banking, robberies and other money related topics, but there are those that stick out as my personal favorites.
1. American Psycho (2000): Not only do I love Christian Bale as this... psycho, but it shows the success and madman path of an executive banker in the rise of the 80's big business craze. This big money maker is Vice President at a Wall Street investment company and lives the lavish life in an apartment in Manhattan. Nothing like watching a hot rich guy go crazy and kill people!
2. Trading Places (1983): Wouldn't you love to trade places with a rich guy? This movie takes Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd through a distinctive plot and plan (I won't give the movie away) to show how a rich man and a poor man can essentially trade places. And of course, they make a bet on it!
3. Wall Street (1987): This movie has money written all over it. I'd like to thank Oliver Stone for this classic film where Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen (Both who I love) are money hungry. Its interesting to watch what people will do to get to the top and what happens when you get there.
What are your favorite movies about money?
