small cost

"Ultimate to the Sea" is an American film released at the end of last year, and the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States is the background of the story. The content mainly insinuates Lehman Brothers, the former fourth largest investment bank in the United States. Despite the strong cast, this is actually just a low-budget, small-production commercial film. This is not only an independent low-budget film, but also a film with a strong commercial flavor. Taking the financial crisis in 2008 as the background, it tells the ugly behavior of capitalists who, in order to gain a chance to survive, transfer the company's own economic crisis to other companies, leading to market turmoil and even financial market paralysis. The participation of a group of senior actors makes the film. The characters are more lively and emotional. It shows the true colors of some of today's big capitalists. The movie is only 105 minutes long. But those 105 minutes condensed everything that happened in 24 hours. But in my opinion these 24 hours are more than that. It seems to condense all the backlog of cancer problems in the capitalist market for decades, and now it has exploded all at once. Just like Sam's beloved dog in the film, he has an incurable tumor. finally exposed.

    Wonderful group play. Spacey's softness is somewhat incomprehensible, after all, he is worried that only survivors will be traded in the future. There is no future without surviving the sell-off storm.

Margin Call quotes

  • Will Emerson: You know, the feeling that people experience when they stand on the edge like this isn't the fear of falling - it's the fear that they might jump

  • Sam Rogers: Thank you all for coming in a little early this morning. I know yesterday was pretty bad and I wish I could say that today is gonna be less so, but that isn't gonna be the case. Now I'm supposed to read this statement to you all here, but why don't you just read it on your own time and I'll just tell you what the fuck is going on here. I've been here all night... meeting with the Executive Committee. And the decision has been made to unwind a considerable position of the firm's holdings in several key asset classes. The crux of it is... in the firms thinking, the party's over as of this morning. There's gonna be considerable turmoil in the Markets for the foreseeable future. And *they* believe it is better that this turmoil begin with us. As a result, the firm has decided to liquidate its majority position of fixed income MBS... today. These are your packets, you will see what accounts you're responsible for, today. I'm sure it hasn't taken you long to understand the implications of this sale, on your relationships with your counter parties and as a result... on your careers. I have expressed this reality to the Executive Committee, and they understand. As a result, if you achieve a 93% sale of your assets, you will receive a 1.4 million dollar one-off bonus. If the floor as a whole achieves a 93% sale, you will get an additional 1.3 million dollars apiece. For those of you who've never been through this before, this is what the beginning of a fire sale looks like. I cannot begin to tell you how important the first hour and half is gonna be. I want you to hit every bite you can find: dealers, brokers, clients, your *mother* if she's buying. And... no swaps, it's outgoing only, today. Obviously this is not going down the way that any of us would have hoped, but... the ground is shifting below our feet, and apparently, there's no other way out.
