Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Rollover - A Sign of the Times
If you want an insight into today's financial crisis, this movie will give it to you. A little dated, for sure, but well worth watching.
Rating:  - Prophetic Thriller!!!
One of the few entries in a genre that could be called "Financial Thriller" is an exciting, thought-provoking film that has more to do with 2008 than with 1981.

Good solid performances by both, but it is a tad difficult to believe Fonda is from Arkansas and Kristopherson from south Texas is a sophisticated, debonair banker. As a mystery, it keeps you guessing.
