I’ve been rewatching a number of movies lately and rather than just unconsciously digest media, I figured I’d do a series of reviews\/analyses of those films. We’re starting with Wolf of Wall-Street. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although the movie is completely outlandish, it’s a great ride and very well directed, edited, scored, written. No wonder it won over a dozen awards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ironically, I’m one degree of separation from the infamous Jordan Belfort – through a mentor of mine, who worked in the same circles as Jordan in the 90s on Wallstreet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s a modern heroes journey ultimately, a man goes from naive house-husband, to insanely powerful, wealthy Wall-Street Titan, to a humbled man, working on using the talents he learned to (finally) help people with the skills he’s picked up along the way (in a completely legal and ethical way). I find it ironic that’s in this final chapter of Jordan’s current life when the movie and book came out (but that’s kind of just how time works right)? But it’s ironic that it’s only AFTER all the infamy is done that he truly found success – both in terms of his writing\/story, the movie and his successful sales consulting business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
