Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps -- Film Review

CANNES -- Oliver Stone's 1987 film "Wall Street" took viewers into an exotic world. Those were the days when financial news occupied the gray back pages of newspapers. Suddenly, here was a movie about banking that looked like a thriller -- traders talked a mile a minute, brokers did deals between gulps of coffee, millions of dollars moved in the twinkling of an eye, people talked on cell phones (albeit the size of a brick), and men could change destiny through insider trading. You also learned that, in the by-now iconic phrase uttered by its anti-hero, Gordon Gekko, "greed is good."
