Top 5 Business Movies …

It’s that time of year again.  Time to review and reflect.  Time to resolve and redress.  Time to trot out the hackneyed “list” articles.

So, without further adieu, … drumroll, please.  The top 5 business themed movies of all time. 

5. Office Space (1999): A cult favorite, this flick explores the everyday annoyances and frustrations of suburban office cubicle existence

4. The Godfather, Part I(1972) and II(1974):  Not exactly the type of business I would run, but a gripping tale about a Mafioso family and a son taking over the family business 

3. The HudSucker Proxy (1994): Tim Robbins nails this role as the naive Norville Barnes, who is installed as a moron president company in order to ensure its failure.  Barnes’ innovative (if not wacky) ideas actually work in this paean to creativity.  

2.  Trading Places (1983): Walk a mile in another man’s shoes.  Comedians Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy star in this nature-versus-nurture farce set in the unlikely world of a commodities brokerage firm.

1. Citizen Kane (1941): The ultimate rise-and-fall/American dream story of a publishing magnate who lived a full, but somewhat empty life.  Orson Welles wrote, starred and directed this cinematic tour de force, … at the ripe old age of 26
