Craig Gillespie’s comedy-drama Dumb Money starts its three-step platform release this weekend courtesy of Sony, opening in eight theaters in LA, NY, Chicago, DC, Boston and San Francisco ahead of an expansion next week and a Sept. 29 wide release. Gillespie (I, Tonya, Lars and the Real Girl) saw lots of love in Toronto for the premiere of his tale of meme stocks, retail traders, riches and battles won and lost. Opening week cinemas include AMC Century City and The Grove (LA); AMC Lincoln Square, Regal Union Square (NY); AMC River East (Chicago); AMC Georgetown; AMC Boston Commons; and AMC Metreon (San Francisco).
The David and Goliath story is that of a phenomenon that exploded in 2021 where ordinary people surged into the market backing specific stocks, pounded them on social media and flipped the script on Wall Street as other piled in. They turned GameStop into the world’s hottest stock for a period, (and also saved movie theater chain AMC Entertainment from bankruptcy).
Paul Dano stars as Keith Gill, a lowly financial analyst in Boston who has a nerdy internet show at night where he talks about stocks. Gill sank his life savings into GameStop and began talking and posting about it. When the posts explode, so does his life and the lives of his online followers. As a stock tip becomes a movement, everyone gets rich until the billionaires fight back and both sides find their worlds turned upside down. Deadline review here. And see Gillespie’s interview with Deadline yesterday.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director “Casino Royale” director Martin Campbell recently told Express UK that he was concerned Daniel Craig wasn’t sexy enough to be James Bond when his name was thrown into the ring to replace Pierce Brosnan as 007. The filmmaker had previously directed Brosnan in the beloved 1995 Bond tentpole “GoldenEye” and was returning to the franchise at the time to launch a new 007 following Brosnan’s exit after 2002’s “Die Another Day.” “My only reticence with Daniel…he was really a superb actor, there’s no doubt about that,” Campbell said.

shares of GameStop higher and squeeze the hedge funds shorting the stock.More broadly, Griffin — worth an estimated $35 billion, according to Forbes — was concerned last month that the movie “revives and amplifies this many times debunked collusion narrative” that Citadel and Robinhood worked together to briefly halt trading of GameStop shares, Griffin’s lawyers wrote.At issue: a scene that depicted Griffin speaking with Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev after trading was halted on the Robinhood platform.In response, sources close to the “Dumb Money” producers – whose movie starring Seth Rogen, Pete Davison, Paul Dano and Shailene Woodley is slated to hit theaters Friday — note that Griffin’s lawyers last month appeared to be working off a script that was more than a year old. A scene depicting a conversation between Griffin and Tenev, they note, isn’t in the final cut.In a similar vein, Griffin’s legal team last month raised a complaint that his golfing habits were being grossly overblown by the movie.“The idea that Ken always wants to be on the golf course when in actuality that is one of the last places you would find him (he plays golf once a year),” according to one letter that was obtained by On The Money.In fact, the filmmakers never actually shot footage of Griffin golfing, sources said.

TORONTO – About three years ago, an underdog YouTube and Reddit personality recruited an army of retail investors that sent investment powerbrokers scrambling and changed how Wall Street viewed social media. It’s an inherently funny story because it seemed preposterous at the time (at least to the financial community), but it also occurred during a pivotal moment in global history.
Gregg Goldstein As a former child dancer, maybe it shouldn’t surprise anyone that 21-year-old Talia Ryder moved so gracefully into singing, directing and acting.

Todd Gilchrist editor After helming a series of based-on-a-true-story projects including “Million Dollar Arm,” “The Finest Hours,” “I, Tonya” and “Pam & Tommy,” Craig Gillespie was the natural candidate to direct “Dumb Money,” Rebecca Angelo and Lauren Schuker Blum’s chronicle of the January 2021 GameStop stock short squeeze and its reverberations throughout Wall Street. But Gillespie tells Variety it wasn’t his developing pedigree in this eclectic subgenre but an experience closer to home that prompted him to take on the story of Keith Gill, aka Roaring Kitty, and the scrappy bunch of investors who rattled two hedge funds and changed investment culture forever.
Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic A lot of the young men who became stock traders in the 1980s saw themselves as rebels. With their Porsches and drugs and (by the decade’s end) their idolization of Gordon Gekko, they put the kill into making a killing. They were the new swingers of greed.
