Money on Film: Greed, Scams & Power on Screen
Join Anita as we explore how cinema brings money — and the extreme things people do for it — to life. Money itself may not be exciting, but the schemes, ambitions and moral dilemmas it inspires have given us some of the most gripping films ever made.
From the high-flying bravado of The Wolf of Wall Street to small-time scammers in Shepherd’s Bush, filmmakers have long found drama in the worlds of hustlers, financiers and dreamers. Greed, deception, obsession and downfall provide rich material for both satire and tragedy.
We’ll examine:
-
Ruthless traders, charming con-artists and white-collar criminals
-
Wealth as temptation, power, corruption — and sometimes redemption
-
Moral judgement, downfall and the price of ambition
-
Why we love watching rogues, schemers and risk-takers on screen
Cautionary tales, sharp humour and spectacular reversals of fortune abound in cinema’s portrayal of money — making for a fascinating journey through films where cash, character and consequences collide.
