"I would have never cut the mustard on Wall Street," Stone admitted during a break between scenes. "I did poorly in economics -- I got a C, and my mathematics were suspect," he laughs.

This is not a movie of compound-complex sentences and nuances. But it is a damned entertaining one, with a textbook display of camerabatics -- if textbooks were comic books with a mean streak...
...oldster). Then there's Nicholson. Well! He might have been rehearsing for this role ever since The Shining. If he was over the top there, he is stratospheric here. He is a beast on two legs, grunting, slavering, pawing anyone, and never mind the scratches. Does Jack stink like Daryl? No, he is gloriously rank. Sulfuric, in fact...
