Gordon Gekko returns to a Wall Street that has brought misery to millions

In the classic Oliver Stone 1987 movie, Wall Street, the Gordon Gekko character played by Michael Douglas, became an icon of the decade because of his mantra on greed. More than two decades later, in the sequel Money Never Sleeps, the free-from-prison Gekko says: “Someone reminded me I once said ‘Greed is good.’ Now it seems it’s legal. Because everyone is drinking the same Kool Aid.”
