The true story of the GameStop short squeeze. When regular guy Keith Gill bets his life savings and posts about it online, he sparks a movement that turns Wall Street upside down.
Dumb Money
Dumb Money (2023) is the ultimate David versus Goliath story, based on the true events of the GameStop short squeeze that gripped the world in early 2021. Directed by Craig Gillespie and adapted from Ben Mezrich's book The Antisocial Network, the film follows the everyday investors who flipped the script on Wall Street and got rich by turning GameStop, the humble mall videogame store, into the most talked about stock on the planet. At the center of it all is Keith Gill (Paul Dano), an ordinary financial analyst who sinks his life savings into GameStop stock and starts posting about it online under the name Roaring Kitty. As his videos catch fire, a simple stock tip becomes a movement, and a community of small investors bands together to take on the billionaire hedge fund managers who bet against them. Everyone gets rich, until the powerful players fight back and both sides find their worlds turned upside down. Featuring a stellar ensemble cast that includes Pete Davidson, Seth Rogen, Sebastian Stan, Shailene Woodley, America Ferrera, Nick Offerman, Anthony Ramos, and Vincent D'Onofrio, Dumb Money blends sharp comedy with real financial drama. It is a timely and entertaining look at money, power, and the moment ordinary people decided to fight the system.
