The whole film is compact, and the dubbing effect is excellent, which can set off the atmosphere at that time. I saw Tony I love again, and it seems that he is indeed older than at that time. Whether it is in this film or in Mrs. Maisel, They are all very elegant, and their temperament has not changed for ten years???, the most handsome men with connotation and wisdom~

The financial system used to be so fragile, but the members of Congress are still tangled and tangled, and they don't know what to say?? The Chinese took advantage of it and sold Russia... Look at the importance of the finance ministers on the stock market , look at ourselves, it's just a tear??

When the chairman of a group has no way to properly assess his own state (Lehman rejected Buffett's offer, in retrospect he really missed the best opportunity☹️), how can the directors intervene in him through emergency plans? In fact, ask yourself, if I were in that position, I might be in a panic, what should I do at this time, it is probably the time to test my wisdom... Calm down, take a deep breath, easier said than done~

What impressed me most was the phone call from French Finance Minister Garrard, not the content, but her accent. It was actually British English, authentic British English. Ha, it's interesting. French people learn British English, right?

Too Big to Fail quotes

  • Richard Fuld: [on the housing crisis] You know, people act like we're crack dealers. Nobody put a gun to anybody's head and said, "Hey, nimrod, buy a house you can't afford, and you know what? While you're at it, put a line of credit on that baby and buy yourself a boat."

    Joe Gregory: [chuckles] You heard anything from Buffett?

    Erin Callan: He's asking for preferred shares at 40, with a dividend of nine percent.

    Richard Fuld: [annoyed] We were just at 66. What the fuck?

    Joe Gregory: Maybe it's just an opening gambit, Dick.

    Richard Fuld: Sounds more like a goddamn insult!

    Erin Callan: Dick, we're at 36 right now. We haven't been anywhere near 66 in months. The markets like Buffett. His name will push the price up overnight.

    Richard Fuld: You know, I don't care who he is. I am not spending $360 million a year for the pleasure of doing business with him. Real estate will come back.

    Joe Gregory: Koreans have been sniffing around.

    Richard Fuld: There you go. And they won't steal us blind. I've seen this before: CEOs panic and they sell out cheap. Right now, the Street's running around with its hair on fire, but the storm always passes. We stand strong, and on the other side, we'll eat Goldman's lunch.

    Erin Callan: So what do we do about Buffett?

    Richard Fuld: Screw Warren Buffett.

  • Ben Bernanke: [Having breakfast with Henry Paulson] Lehman's down another 10%.

    Henry Paulson: You are not gonna let me get down a single bite, are you?

    Ben Bernanke: This is why I have oatmeal.
