The Wolf of Wall Street

Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street charts the rise and fall of Jordan Belfort, a brash New York stockbroker who navigates the corrupt terrain of Wall Street and corporate banking, all while dodging the tendrils of organized crime. Adapted from Belfort’s memoir, the film is a brazen portrait of excess and moral decay, rendered with Scorsese’s trademark visual flair and a bravura performance from Leonardo DiCaprio as the unrepentant kingpin of a fraudulent brokerage firm.
