Notes et avis

I saw this in a theater forgot abt it til recently the Ben Affleck monologue had me rolling on the floor! I did telemarketing it wasn't this insane but it wasn't far off

Excelente película que refleja el mundo de las ventas de intangibles, las cuales se utilizan el casas de bolsa de poca credibilidad y calls center que ofrecen paquetes turísticos y utilizan esta modalidad de ventas por teléfono.

Awesome description on stock fraud and the infamous "pump and dump" stock scheme from offices crammed with young men,hookers, and dope and chaos also known as a "boiler room". Hard sale tactics,gritty and raw.Great film
