Oh, okay. Then WALL STREET.
And THE BANK (though I hated it, to be honest with you). Perhaps BOILER ROOM?
Then there're films like MY MAN GODFREY and SABRINA -- both of which deal in some ways with high finance, though both are romantic comedies...
I can't think of many movies that are really about finance, but I can think of a bunch that have characters who are engaged in high finance.

"Barbarians At The Gate" - great HBO movie about corporate greed and takeovers.

Definitely ! "Rogue Trader"
Best movie of this sub-genre (? if you would call it that)
I wouldn't call the following "Finance" movies but if you are looking into something from a sales / financial perspective, I would reccomend:
"Boiler Room"
"Glengarry Glen Ross"

You may want to check out "Dealers" as well. It's not on DVD though.

Would the Godfather Part III count? I know it belongs in the Gangster genre, but it does have the element of Michael Corleone trying to take over that European corporation.
