Review of Equity (2016) by Amanda C — 15 Feb 2017
There are moments of Equity where the financial lingo gets a bit too technical for the layman to follow, but that is a small quibble for an otherwise solid film. Equity is a film that gives us a look into the traditionally male world of high finance and gives us the female perspective.
Anna Gunn gives a strong performance in front of the camera and she is backed by equally strong work from Meera Menon and Amy Fox who take on directing and writing duties respectively. The result is a fresh take on a subject that has been extensively covered in other films about the world of high finance.
Equity is more grounded then its predecessors, less about the exhibition, spectacle and ego of the Wallstreet tycoons, focusing instead on the dirty dealings and intellect that drives the money machine.
It is a thrilling ride.
