What to look out for when you go and see The Big Short

1.    Some on point explanations of Wall Street lingo, most notably with the help of jenga and some old fish- which surprisingly work to de-mystify the ‘complex’ economics behind the financial crisis

2.    Ryan Gosling being dreamy throughout

3.    Another amazing prosthetic nose performance from Steve Carrell

4.    The maverick who discovered the housing bubble simply by thinking to investigate the stability of people’s mortgages, who bet against them and ultimately made a killing. He now puts his profits to good causes. 

5.    Feelings of anger, frustration and disbelief as you realise the whole financial system was (and still is) based on not only stupidity, but brazen ignorance for the consequences of their own recklessness

6.    Brad Pitt, playing a retired banker turned hippy, ladies and gentlemen 

7.    An amazing soundtrack featuring Led Zepellin and Gorillaz

8.    Your sanity as you realise nothing has changed and we’re literally in a housing bubble right now

ENJOY J
