This film is very different from the 2010 Oscar-best documentary "Inside Job", which reviewed the "in and out" of the economic crisis from a macro perspective It is not involved because it violates the original intention of the real record). Through interviews with many "big bowls" participating in it, and analysis of various data, the purpose is to explain to the world the true story of this tragedy. The film starts from the source of the storm, focusing on a fictional enterprise that can be seen by some people as a real prototype and plays an important role, giving the audience a glimpse of the spark of the past.
The poster and the cast list have made it clear to the audience that this will be a group show, they are all employees of a company, each other or colleagues or superiors, and the story never lasts more than a day. Glengarry Glen Ross, filmed in 1992 with the same financial theme, has the same setting, and both films star Kevin Spacey. The script of Tycoon Game does not waste the extravagant cast, and the several leading actors have a lot of intense and exciting rivalries with each other throughout the film. The roles of the leading actors in "Storm of Interest" are also relatively equal, and the narrative rhythm is stable. Although it is a group show without prominent roles, there is no fierce battle of words here. These "sacrifices" to the traditional dramatic tension are for the authenticity of the film as a whole and the fullness of the characters.
There is a popular rule in the workplace: "Either be ruthless, or endure, or get out", which corresponds not to the old, middle-aged and young, but to facing differences of opinion, those with strength are qualified to make ruthless decisions, and those without strength can only endure and obey, but have no strength. But the only way out is to get out.
In the group portrait, this time Kevin Spacey played the role of the "moral guardian" who was silt and unsullied. He was accompanied by not only the company leaders and subordinate employees who disagreed, but also the dying dog who could be taken away by the god of death at any time. , the choice he finally made in the dilemma is still true and credible, and there is no sense of incongruity with the overall realistic tone of the film.
