25th Hour (2002 film)

Not a film about Wall Street, but a good movie with some great NYC scenery.

The only scene really related to finance starts at 0:17:52.

25TH HOUR (2002)

An under-rated gem, 25th Hour is a powerful story about how the decisions you make in your life, and who you make them with, can ultimately lead to your downfall.

When drug dealer ‘Monty’ Montgomery Brogan (Edward Norton) is busted in post 9-11 New York, he has 24 hours to tie up the loose ends in his life before going to jail.

Spending the last night of his life with his girlfriend Naturelle (Rosario Dawson) and two best friends, Frank (Barry Pepper) a high flyer on Wall Street, and Jacob (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) an English teacher who finds himself in an awkward predicament with one of his students, Monty learns to take responsibility of his own actions while dreading his upcoming stretch in prison.

The acting is top notch, especially in regards to Edward Norton who delivers his best work since American History X. 25th Hour is a very good film and a treat for fans of Spike Lee and the actors involved.
