Story:
Bio-comedy drama directed by Craig Gillespie. Based on the true story of everyday people who flipped the script on Wall Street and got rich by turning GameStop into the world’s hottest company. Dumb Money (2023) follows regular guy Keith Gill (Paul Dano), who starts it all by sinking his life savings into the stock and posting about it. When his social posts start blowing up, so does his life and the lives of everyone following him. As a stock tip becomes a movement, everyone gets rich, until the billionaires fight back, and both sides find their worlds turned upside down.
We’ll add the best quotes once the movie is released and we’ve had a chance to watch it, but for now, here’s a small selection.
