Lee and starring George Bancroft, Paul Lukas, Olga Baclanova, and Nancy Carroll. The story and screenplay were written by Doris Anderson.[1] Originally made as a silent film, The Wolf of Wall Street was completely re-filmed with sound,[2] becoming Bancroft's first talkie.[3]{{or inline|reason=The source for the latter part of this sentence doesn't appear to acknowledge the claim made in the first part of this sentence. This means that "becoming" could be inadvertent SYNTH, because the latter source might have retroactively called the film Bancroft's first talkie because the "silent version" (was it ever released?) predates his first film produced with sound from the get-go even if the "sound version" of this film does not predate that film. This scenario seems unlikely, and the odds are this material should be maintained as is, but a new source that directly supports it will need to be found, because in principle Wikipedia articles should not be written like this.|date=September 2016}} The plot concerns a ruthless trader (Bancroft) who corners the market in copper and then sells short, making a fortune but ultimately ruining the finances of himself and his friends.[4][5][6] Cast
ReceptionReception for the film was mixed. Life criticized the film for depending too much on its novelty value; the advertising ran "George Bancroft talks ... Baclanova sings", and Life noted "there is the good news that George Bancroft has a fine screen voice", but felt the film lacked substance in the plot.[7] Film Daily wrote that "George Bancroft as the roughneck engineering a pool in Wall Street to get the sucker is immense, as usual", but complained of a lack of action and weak story.{{citation needed|date=August 2015}} References1. ^Christopher Silvester.
