★★★★ · I like to carrymy money in white bags emblazened with a $ sign too! · Spuzz · 2015-11-18

Thought I was in for a boring film, but aside from a few techy stretches here and there, I really like the direction the Banking Association took. Filling this film with re-enactments, animation and other clever filmmaking techniques to keep the viewer interested. Also interesting how the words "Great Depression" are not mentioned at all during this. All velvet glasses here!
