The movie
narrative of, Margin Call (2011), is
as follows. In New
York City, U.S.A.,
a stock brokerage firm is under a major shake up. Additionally; people from outside the firm
start to arrive, in order, to terminate the employment of the workers, or
brokers, who work at the stock brokerage firm.
The goal is to eliminate, the majority, of the workers who work there. A man named, Peter Sullivan, is confused for
being, Eric Dale. A man named Eric Dale,
is one of the workers, or stock brokers, that has had his employment
terminated. Peter Sullivan is friends
with, Seth Bregman. Both are low level
workers, or brokers, at the firm. Before
he leaves the office, Eric Dale talks to Will Emerson. Subsequently, Eric Dale is taken out of the
office, by security guards. At the
elevators, Eric Dale talks to and gives Peter Sullivan, a flash drive with a
file on it. Additionally, he tells
Sullivan to look at it, and, to be careful.
Will Emerson goes to talk to Sam Rogers, at his office. Rogers
is feeling depressed, because, his dog is dying. Furthermore, he gives the workers that didn’t
have their employment terminated, a motivational speech. The day passes, and, it is night time. Bregman and others, are going to go out
drinking. He invites Sullivan, but,
Sullivan stays to finish working.
Furthermore, Sullivan looks at the file that, Eric Dale asked him to
look at. Sullivan starts to work on the
parts of the file that, were left incomplete.
Unexpectedly, Sullivan sees something, after he finishes completing the
file. He immediately calls, Eric Dale. Sullivan is unable to get a hold of
Dale. Sullivan decides to call Bregman,
second. Sullivan tells Bregman to return
to the office with, Will Emerson. It’s
very late at night, when Bregman and Emerson return to the office. Immediately; Sullivan tells them about having
spoken to Eric Dale, at the elevators and the file that, he gave him. Furthermore, that he finished the work that,
was incomplete. Sullivan and Bregman
explain to Emerson that, Dale had the accounting information for the firm. Additionally, that he invented a formula
that, shows the projected profits and losses of the firm. The point is, since the week that past, the
projected losses are greater than the value of the entire business. Emerson immediately sends Sullivan and
Bregman to a bar, in order, to find Eric Dale.
Emerson, also, calls Rogers
and tells him to return to the office, immediately. Rogers
arrives, and, Emerson explains the situation. Rogers
understands the problem that, is in front of him. The problem is that, the firm just survived a
day where the majority of the workers, had their employment terminated. Furthermore, if the losses are greater than
the value of the firm, then, their lives have ended. For Rogers,
the only question is; did Sullivan do the work correctly? Sullivan and Bregman return to the office
without, Eric Dale. By coincidence, they
meet Rogers and Emerson, at the elevators.
Rogers changes the direction
of the night. The new direction is
finding a second opinion to the work that, Sullivan has completed. Waiting in a conference room are Jared Cohen,
Sarah Robertson, Ramesh Shah and David Horn.
The matter at hand, is confirming if Sullivan’s work is correct. The time is 2:15
in the morning. The group decides that,
Sullivan’s work is correct. Cohen wants
to secretly sell assets, stocks and securities that the firm owns. Additionally, Cohen knows that, the jobs that
remain have to be eliminated. Rogers
is opposed to Cohen’s plan. Ultimately,
Cohen decides to call a big boss named, John Tuld. John Tuld arrives by helicopter, and, the
group quickly sits down to a second meeting.
During the second meeting; the group discusses what it means to sell the
firm’s assets, stocks and securities.
What it immediately means is that after spending a day terminating the
employment of the workers, or brokers, there has to be a second day of
terminating employment. For the second
day, the majority of the workers, or brokers, who survived the first day of
slaughter; will have their employment terminated. The second thing that it means, is that what
is being sold, doesn’t have value. The
firm, subsequently would be the source of a collapse of the entire U.S.
economy. From this point forward; the
series of events, take the viewer, to the end.
Eric Dale is brought back to be a consultant on the matter at hand. A decision is made; in regards to the selling
of the assets, stocks and securities.
However, there are consequences.
