About this movie

With a stellar local cast including David Wenham, Sibylla Budd and Anthony LaPaglia THE BANK is a corporate thriller in which the good guys lose and the rich guys just get richer. Centabank CEO Simon O'Reilly (LaPaglia) declares that he is "like God, but with a better suit", and he is as ruthless as he is successful. But when a maverick mathematician, Jim Doyle (Wenham), joins O'Reilly's fold with a formula for predicting the fluctuations of the stock market, he must prove to his avaricious mentor that he follows the "greed is good" philosophy. 2001 Australian Film Finance Corporation Ltd, Cinemedia Corporation, The Premium Movie Partnership, Content Capital Limited, Arenafilm Pty Ltd
