	Wall Street (movie) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The movie has come to be seen as the archetypal portrayal of 1980s excess, with Douglas as the archetypal "Master of the Universe".
		The movie is significant in terms of reflecting the public's general malaise with the current state of affairs in the "big business" world both in the late 1980s and in the wake of the late 1990s post-internet bubble scandals.
		The inspiration for the "Greed is good" speech seems to have come from a 1985 commencement address at UC Berkeley, delivered by stock speculator Ivan Boesky, in which he said, "Greed is all right, by the way.

	Greed (1925 movie) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Greed is a 1924 dramatic silent movie about an honest dentist whose wife wins a lottery ticket, only to become obsessed with money.
		The movie was adapted by Joseph Farnham (titles) and June Mathis from the novel McTeague by Frank Norris.
		In 1999, Turner Entertainment (the film's current rights holder) decided to "recreate," as close as possible, the original version by combining the existing footage with still photographs of the lost scenes, in accordance with an original continuity outline written by director Erich von Stroheim.

	greed
		Greed was begun at Metro studios under Louis B. Mayer but shortly after the film began production, Metro and Goldwyn merged and von Stroheim once again found himself under the thumb of Irving Thalberg, production manager.
		Greed starred Gibson Gowland as a dimwitted behemoth, McTeague, who rises from the life of a gold miner to become a dentist in San Francisco.
		Greed takes a more fatalistic approach to life; when Mac takes to drink, it is the realization of his internal tendencies, seen earlier in the example of father MacTeague.

	Chicago Reader Movie Review
		For Greed has to be the most negative depiction of what money can do to people that exists in movies (curiously, it has never been taken up as a cause by Marxist critics, at least not for ostensibly Marxist reasons).
		This is arguably even more the case in Stroheim's movie than in Norris's novel, thanks to the remarkable performances of Gowland and Pitts, who succeed in incarnating these people, so that they seem to exist between the shots and sequences as well as during them.
		Their grim relationship is driven by greed and mutual mistrust and lighted and framed mainly in an expressionist manner.

	Greed Reconstruction
		"Greed," which upon its release was described by one trade paper as "the filthiest, vilest, most putrid picture in the history of the motion picture business," was voted one of the three most important American films of all time in a 1976 poll of critics.
		The typical von Stroheim movie ("Blind Husbands," "Foolish Wives," "The Merry Widow") was a Ruritanian romance, awash in decadence, sadism and the glamour of the evil rich.
		All right, "Greed" is not "Singin' in the Rain"; it's more like "Croakin' in the Desert." It was von Stroheim's intention to expose the viewer to the same parched existence that Trina made for Mac, and in that it is remarkably, artfully successful.

		The director hoped the movie would be distributed as a special two-night presentation -- but he had produced it for the Samuel Goldwyn Co., which merged with Metro Pictures shortly after he finished what he meant to be his final cut.
		This "Greed" reconstructs the grand design of von Stroheim's four-hour cut and goes a long way toward filling it in.
		In von Stroheim's plan, McTeague, Marcus and Trina occupy the middle of a spectrum encompassing, on one end, the scabrous shared venality of a gold-mad junk dealer and maid and, on the other, the sweetly furtive late-life romance of a veterinarian and his next-door neighbor.

		Set in early 20th century California, GREED, Erich von Stroheim's extraordinarily ambitious study of a group of people who are destroyed by their own avarice, was whittled down from nine hours to 131 minutes before it was released to the public in 1924.
		Later, the GREED company ventured into Death Valley, where they were greeted by temperatures ranging from 91 to 161 degrees.
		Anyone curious about the uncut version is directed to The Complete Greed of Erich von Stroheim, a book in which cineaste Herman G. Weinberg attempted to reconstruct the lost classic by publishing the original full-length script side by side with hundreds of stills from the film's deleted sequences.

		Carl is a maintenance chief at a small airline, Bluestar and learns that they will soon be cleared of a safety concern after a previous crash.
		Gekko clearly represents Donald Trump, and those like him, whose dealings were being reported on daily.
		His catchphrase from the speech, "Greed is good", came to symbolise the ruthless, profit-obsessed, short-term corporate culture of the 1980s and 1990s and by extension became associated with the neoclassical, anti-union economic policies that made slash-and-burn capitalism possible.

		It is movies like "Wall Street" that lead people to believe that the 80's was a decade of greed, because they are making social comment on what were new and outrageous practices of the financial institutions and brokers -whereas now, these practices and massive earnings are simply accepted as a fact of life.

		Michael Douglas won an Oscar for perfectly embodying the Reagan-era credo that "greed is good." As a Donald Trump-like Wall Street raider aptly named Gordon Gecko (for his reptilian ability to attack corporate targets and swallow them whole), Douglas found a role tailor-made to his skill in portraying heartless men who've sacrificed humanity to power.
		"Greed is good" says Douglas' Gekko, and proves it to his innocent understudy, Charlie Sheen as a stockbroker.
		Most of the movie focuses on Charlie Sheen's character, and even though Douglas is perfect in the role of Gordon Gekko, I wasn't overwhelmed by his performance.
