It's a movie I did see years ago but probably didn't have the full appreciation for at the time. Not understanding much about the housing markets and the financial crash of the time it didn't really catch my interest that much. Ref: ecnmy.org To me the plot about the investors conviction is the real story. The few people that were on the right side of the market and backed their positions when everybody else told th…More

Source *All the screenshots in this post were taken directly from the movie by me.* >A couple of days ago, I had the opportunity to watch "The Big Short" for the first time, a 2015 film directed by Adam Mackey (whom many of us know from the relatively recent "Don't Look Up") that, based on real-life events, revolved around the 2007/2008 real estate crisis and a group of people who managed to use it to their advantag…More
A 2015 movie Una película de 2015 I know people who love movies and although they want to see hundreds of movies and have an extensive list of directors, actors, actresses and films to see, on many occasions they end up going back to see one of their favorite movies. What I didn't know until a few years ago was that I was one of those people myself. In recent months I've had times when I want to see a specific movie…More
A week ago, I finally got to stream The Big Short on Netflix. I have been wanting to watch the movie for a very long time, but somehow, I have always found something else to stream, and truth be told, I am spending less time watching movies and TV series now than before. But, finally, I had the chance to watch Ryan Gossling, Brad Pitt, Steve Carrell, Christian Bale, and several other stars in this movie based on a t…More
Lo primero que tengo que decir aquí es que no tengo ni la menor idea en lo que se refiere a términos o cuestiones de financias, en ciertas partes de la película no entendía nada de lo que estaban diciendo, por lo que las explicaciones para dummies me sentaron de maravilla, llegándome a gustar mucho y a divertirme, gracias a ellas entendí gran parte de los problemas, aunque debo ser sincero que volví a ver esta cinta…More

Fuente Fuente Oficialmente he terminado de leer The big short (en español la gran apuesta), un libro que puedo decir que fue muy complejo para mí. Me hizo investigar cada uno de sus términos financieros que desconocía. Es necesario volver a leer de nuevo e ir analizándolo con detalle. Lo mismo me pasa con la película, ya la he visto cuatro veces y en cada ocasión anotó otra definición más que ignoraba, sorprende ver…More
Filled with wonderful actors and an interesting directing style that periodically addresses the 4th wall, this informative biographical film manages to have a little bit of everything that appeals to me in films: Some comedy, actual real-life information including a big corruption reveal, and some really great storytelling. source I absolutely love Carell in serious roles and he is one of the main people that this f…More
Una de mis películas favoritas Una de las películas más nominadas en la última entrega de los Oscars fue _Vice_, la biopic sobre el político Dick Cheney, escrita y dirigida por Adam McKay y protagonizada por Christian Bale en una actuación de lujo. Sin embargo, hace algunos años, McKay sorprendió a propios y extraños con otra comedia dramática, biográfica, también escrita y dirigida por él, sobre la crisis financier…More
I think at a time like this, with the cryptocurrencies on the floor, it would be nice to take a look again at the movie The Big Short, which could perhaps make us see from another perspective how the financial world works and thus obtained several conclusions on what may or may not be happening with cryptocurrencies. > > Source Year: 2015 Category: Biographical, Comedy, Drama.

Bankers and brokers have convinced us that their work is something complex and difficult, which requires a lot of knowledge, and that we, ordinary, unskilled people, will not understand. The truth is that almost everything about their business can be learned and explained much simpler, and part of their practice that comes down to the "feeling" may be a gamble, and may be a manipulation. An example of such bank irre…More
