...actors who apparently had slim pickings when it came to selecting their launch vehicle to the silver screen. Scott Porter (“Friday Night Lights”) plays the dashing Tommy Fielding, who looks to the audience like a high school senior doing his internship at a Wall Street firm, but whom the film helpfully tells us is actually a stock broker there. Painted from the start as “the good guy” in a depraved world full of cut-throats and egotists, Fielding is dating the lovely Beth Vest (Alexis Bledel...
Hence, there is Dan’s miraculous transformation from a borderline autistic into a Wall Street whiz who is also the life of Beth’s book club.

From the usual conservative press coverage like The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Times to more independent coverage like CNN and Time Magazine, the media has consistently and misguidedly portrayed the bill as blatantly ignoring the will of the people. Such reporting distracts from the real issues at hand and has taken away from many of the key issues...
