There’s something funny going on at the bank …

By Eric Robinette | Thursday, September 25, 2008, 11:14 AM

For some reason, one of my colleagues asked me to come up with a list of financial movies - Wall Street, Boiler Room, etc. Can’t imagine why stuff like that is on anyone’s mind …

The clip I can’t get out of my mind is the bank run from It’s a Wonderful Life.

Suddenly this scene looks scary, doesn’t it? If only we could get by on $20 these days. But let’s have a little fun. Who in the read world is The Mr. Potter in all this mess? The forgetful Uncle Billy?

And most importantly, who’s our George Bailey?

The floor is yours …

If only we had a George Bailey - now HE could get my vote for president…

Sadly, the “greed is good” speech from Wall Street is what I have been hearing.
