You will not find a film that gets closer to the truth about Wall Street than Equity. It makes The Wolf of Wall Street look like a cartoon. Indeed, Equity’s ending is so radical, it will stun you into silence. You will not see it coming. You will think that its story, which is about a Bay Area tech company going public, and this transition being managed by a powerful money-loving female investment banker, is heading in a completely different direction. You will think you know who will win and who will lose in this high-stakes game. And you will be surprised by how much you got it all wrong—because this film is after a much deeper truth about finance and American greed.
