Trading Places (film)

I love it. As well as being very, very funny, the end scene is a fantastic demonstration of the little man hitting the big man where it hurts. In your face Duke Brothers!

if only every corrupt motherfucker who caused/made a killing off the economic crash got exactly what happened to the duke brothers

Not seen it for decades. Must watch it again. Eddie Murphy was so good back then

Great film. It loses something when shown on telly and they overdub one of the Duke brothers saying "Fuck him" when the other one collapses at the end with "forget him" in a voice that was clearly recorded later, in a different place, and very badly.

A couple is seconds of it might be worth watching, depending on who is taking Jamie Lee Curtis' part

Could someone with a better grasp of finance than me please explain how they make all the money at the end and the Dukes lose all theirs ?

I've struggled with this ever since the film was released !

Idiots terminology only please !

The Dukes think the OJ forecast is going to be bad (as they have the false crop report), so they are expecting the price to go up once the report is announced, so they tell their guy to buy as much OJ as he can, regardless of the price...

That's as far as I've ever got - and I'm not certain I've even got that right !!
