Grabbing Wall Street by the Big, Short Hairs.

Steve Carell and Ryan Gosling give adept, quirky performances in 'The Bg Short' 

The film The Big Short, which I saw yesterday with Bart Rettberg and Matt Mattingly, does something I would not have thought possible — making an entertaining, clear and even bitterly funny movie out of the story of how Wall Street's bottomless corruption wrecked the world economy in 2008. This movie will leave American right wingers squirming in sheer cognitive dissonance, unless they cover their ears and sing, “Lalalalala!” at the top of their lungs.
