For the epic wrap-up of our journey through true crime films, Sarah finally threw Dan a bone, or rather, “an entire skeleton” by programming The Wolf of Wall Street (2013). We’re diving into the depraved depths of films about stockbrokers to see if director Martin Scorsese created a satirical masterpiece, or just a three-hour recruitment video for “absolute wankers”
Featuring Leonardo DiCaprio’s increasingly insane performance as Jordan Belfort alongside Jonah Hill’s over the shoulder jumper wearing Donnie to Margot Robbie’s “walking red flag” energy, we’re getting under the hood on this one. We explore some of the development process of the production – including the ironic fact that Red Granite Productions was mired in its own controversy around the funding of the Wolf of Wall Street. It is a Jonah Hill we are prepared to stand on as we shout about Martin Scorsese movies, pill-induced chaos, and record-breaking vulgarity.
What to expect from this episode:
That's a wrap on Sarah's season of true crime movies, but have no fear, for we shall returneth. Put 9th February in your calendar for the start of season 14! A brand new season with a brand new theme chosen by Dan and announced at the end of this episode.
