Did we witness the French Revolution of Finance in 2021? Was it Occupy Wall Street 2.0? Depending on who you ask about the GameStop stock phenomenon of last year, those descriptions might actually fit perfectly.
GameStop: Rise of the Players is a documentary look at the GameStop short squeeze and stock price explosion of early 2021, through the eyes of nine ordinary people who held onto their shares long enough to see tremendous profits. The film premiered in U.S. theaters Jan. 28, 2021.
