About this item

In the mid-2000s, hedge fund manager Michael Burry (Christian Bale) took a hard look at the subprime mortgage market...and saw the tidal wave of borrower defaults to come. As a handful of financial industry insiders watched him bet billions against the very stability of the banks, they felt themselves torn between knowing the consequence of collapse...and getting themselves a very lucrative piece of that action. Adam McKays trenchant take on the 08 economic crisis, inspired by the Michael Lewis bestseller, also stars Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Brad Pitt, Marisa Tomei, Hamish Linklater. 130 minutes
