NY Times’ Dealbook writes: We at DealBook often dream of
reviewing movies for The New York Times And once in a while, a finance-oriented
film comes along to pique our interest.
A new independent movie, “Supercapitalist,” incorporates
modern-day tools (smartphones, computer data dumps) to the familiar villain of
Wall Street greed. The film also touches on many of the business themes
familiar to Wall Streeters: poison pills, short-selling, bets on Fed monetary
policies and of course, wealth.
Though it may seem that financiers would shun anything that
would cast them in a harsh light, the film’s executive producers include Sam
Kwok, who is a director at a venture capital firm focused on early-stage media
and technology investment, and John Hsu, who manages his family’s investment
portfolio of stocks hedge funds, properties, private equity and venture
capital.The director, Simon Yin, also nods to the globalization of money that
has shifted financial centers to other parts of the world. Although New York
plays a major role, it is now Hong Kong that is main backdrop as Asia is the
center for wealth and success….
