Arbitrage

“Sinfully entertaining..”~Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Aroview: Sleek drama with "silver fox" Richard Gere in fine form as a troubled hedge fund magnate desperate to complete the sale of his trading empire before his financial improprieties.

True to form for a Gere vehicle, the stakes are elevated through a sex scandal that's he's keen to sweep under the carpet, while his business morality takes a further tumble for the sake of sheer survival. Part of a wave of smart, white collar melodramas set in the wake of the global financial crisis of 2008, though this is comparatively glossy next to the genre's best film thus far, MARGIN CALL.
