Revered filmmaker Martin Scorsese directs the story of New York
stockbroker Jordan Belfort played by Leonardo DiCaprio. From the American dream
to corporate greed, Belfort goes from penny stocks and righteousness to IPOs
and a life of corruption in the late 80’s. Excess success and affluence in his
early twenties as founder of the brokerage firm Stratton Oakmont warranted
Belfort the title – “The Wolf of Wall Street.”
Money. Power. Women. Drugs. Temptations were for the taking and
the threat of authority was irrelevant. For Jordan and his wolf pack, modesty
was quickly deemed overrated and more was never enough. The Wolf of Wall
Street premiered in New York City on December 17, 2013, and was released
theatrically on December 25, 2013.
