Margin Call (2011)

Follows the key people at an investment bank, over a 24-hour period, during the early stages of the financial crisis.

Slowpaced, subtle, well-paced, and amazingly easily understandable rendition of the 2008 finance crisis with a stellar cast.

Maltin**1/2: "Absorbing inside look...First-time writer-director Chandor tries to put a human face on the 2008 financial meltdown in this well-cast (and well-acted) drama, but it's awfully dry, and as insular as the people it depicts."
