"Pulp Fiction" This movie is about many things, yet it's money that's a common thread that keeps the story going. The diner robbery, featuring an obscenity-filled, memorable, although short, monologue, shows the desperation that can result from needing money badly.
"Wall Street" This is one of most well known and critically acclaimed movies about money. It's directed by Oliver Stone, and it stars Michael Douglas. Memorable lines from the film include, "The main thing about money, Bud, is that it makes you do things you don't want to do."
"Indecent Proposal" This film stars Demi Moore, Robert Redford and Woody Harrelson. It tells the story of what happens when a couple who are in deep need of money are given a proposition. A man offers them a million dollars for one night with the wife.
"You Ruined My Life" One of the little seen, underrated movies about money. It stars a young Soleil Moon-Frye and Paul Reiser. Paul's character gets in trouble when he's caught cheating in a casino. Yet he is met with a proposal from the casino's owner. If he teaches and tutors the owner's young niece, the casino owner won't press charges and place him in jail. In the process, they all learn more about life than the value of money.
"Trading Places" A great comedy that stars Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy. As its title slightly suggests, it's the story of a rich man who becomes poor, and it's the story of a poor man who becomes rich. How life can change based on your income is chronicled in this light-hearted tale.
