Dang Girl | Trading Places | First Time Watching | Movie Reaction

What happens when you combine the comic genius of Eddie Murphy with Dan Aykroyd and director John Landis? You get a timeless comedy classic laced with sidesplitting, satiric humor. Murphy stars as a small-time con artist who gets a chance to switch lives with Aykroyd's big-time stock market maven. But their reversal of fortunes is just a cruel joke perpetrated by two bored mega-rich brothers (Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy) as part of an idle bet. When the truth comes out...the consequences are sheer comedy gold!
Actors: Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Ameche, Ralph Bellamy, Denholm Elliott, Kristin Holby, Tom Mardirosian, Clint Smith, Ron Taylor
Director: John Landis

You were close in your analysis of the market scene. They didn't buy shares at the beginning. When it hit 142 they started selling short, they were promising to sell shares they didn't yet have. Everyone thought it would keep going up so they jumped on them. Then when the price crashed they bought up the shares to cover the ones they had already promised to sell for around $100 more than they werenow buying them

[@d.t.nelson8805]

Actually, what Winthorpe and Vallentine did was short the stock- They essentially borrowed the stock owned by someone else, when it hit a high point before the real crop report came out, they sold it, which started driving the price down. When the crop report came out the stock went into a free fall. At some point they started to buy the stock back at a lower price (they have to end with the same number of shares they started with). At the end of trading they return the shares they borrowed plus a percentage of the profits. They did exactly what you are suppose to do with stocks-buy low and sell high... they just did it in reverse-selling high then buying back low. Shorting stock is extremey risky in most cases because it requires predicting ACURATELY what a stock is going to do on a certain day. They of course (illegally) used insider information and knew exactly what the stock was going to do.

33:50 - basically, the boys sold shares that they bought at $29 for $142 (some fluctuation in the middle, of course). That's a good spread! They at least quadrupled their investment plus what they got with leverage.

[@talltulip]

Out of curiosity, I like to check the dollar figures mentioned in older movies on an online inflation calculator. Here are some of the equivalents from this 1983 movie. The Dukes made an extra $347K in the car on the way to work at the beginning of the movie. In 2024, that would be $1,061,562 Billy Ray's starting salary was $80k. In 2024 that would be $244,741. The vase he broke cost $35k ($107,074), was insured for $50k ($152,962), netting them a profit of $45,888. "42 Grand in T-bills" = $128,488. $394million in '83 would be $1.2billion now.

[@SimoExMachina2]

No Sir, they did not have any stocks at the beginning. They just had the capital from the savings of Ophelia and Coleman, and the fee the Dukes were going to give to Beeks. They used this money, only after the stocks had plummeted and they could buy cheap, and sell high since they had made those "future"-contracts at high price. Dan knew the game and with the insider knowledge + the false info to the Dukes, was able to capitalize big time, even with the limited finances of what they had.

[@Savenso]

I think it was different in the stock market scene: They first sold without having anything, as the accounts only have to be balanced at the end of the day, so they bought again later in order to balance their account. Unfortunately, my theory didn't understand why they needed the money from the butler and the whore.

[@YourXavier]

Because only rich people get to gamble with money they don't have. No, it doesn't make any sense. Yes, that's actually how it works.

27:51 - a lot of folks have missed it, but the Amtrak cargo worker on the left is Al Franken. Originally a 'sketch writer' for "Saturday Night Live", eventually became a US Senator from MN in the late '00s!

[@mildredpierce4506]

The two guys that worked with the ape used to be writers on SNL. The shorter of the two, Al Franken, went into politics, wrote several books, including Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them.

[@jeffsetter213]

The trading scene: Dan & Eddie knew the $ of FCOJ would drop once the real report came out so they waited for the price to rise due to the huge amount of Duke buying then sold short @ $140. Then at the bottom they covered their shorts at $30, pocketing the -$110 per contract. Also, this was done using leveraged futures contracts, not stock, so they could buy something like 8x their actual cash value in contracts, massively amplifying the gain. Hope that helps & thanks for the fun review. Your laugh is amazing. Cheers!

"We only had 3 channels, so we did not watch it". Signing here as "laughing in Finland", when I grew up Finnish TV only had 2 channels, YLE 1 and YLE 2, and everyone watched those because you got what you saw. Later we got a third channel, MTV 3 (nothing to do with music channel; stands for "advertisement television"), and it was the first and only commercial channel. Much later we got "Nelonen" (channel 4), which was also commercial. Also sometime in the 90's we got cable TV's for those with munah, so they could watch classics like MTV (the real deal this time), Eurosport, some subchannel of the NBC and some obscure European channels.

[@Savenso]

When I was a child (around 1980) we only had 3 channels in Germany, with the first two sharing the program for half the day. When the private channels came along at some point, a completely new world was revealed and today with cable television, I have almost a hundred channels. If I also had satellite television, the number would be many times higher, which is of course a joke compared to America.

[@EricAKATheBelgianGuy]

- Released in 1983; directed by John Landis; written by Timothy Harris and Herschel Weingrod. - Don Ameche (Mortimer Duke, the one with the mustache) was reluctant to say "F*** him!" when Randolph collapsed to the ground at the end. He would only do one take of it, and apologized to everybody for saying it. - Wall Street actually passed a rule about insider trading based off of this movie. It's called the Eddie Murphy Rule. - Both Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy (Randolph Duke) had career revivals after this movie, Ameche in particular - he would win an Oscar for Supporting Actor two years later for the film "Cocoon." - Received one Oscar nomination for Best Original Score (Elmer Bernstein), but didn't win its category. But Jamie Lee Curtis and Denholm Elliott (Coleman) won the BAFTA, the British version of the Oscar, for supporting performances, and the writers received a nomination as well in Britain. - The idea for Trading Places started because writer Timothy Harris had a regular tennis game with two upscale, snobbish brothers who would bet on anything and everything. - Originally, the roles were going to go to Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor, based on the success they had with their 1980 film Stir Crazy. Pryor set himself on fire during a drug binge, and Eddie Murphy was suggested as a replacement. Dan Aykroyd got the role because of his chemistry with John Landis. Many thought Aykroyd was ridding John Belushi's coattails during their time together on Saturday Night Live, and weren't sure if he could carry the role on his own. Similarly, Jamie Lee Curtis was known for horror movies, and the studio didn't think she could do comedy, so they almost passed on her. - G. Gordon Liddy (yes, the same man involved in Watergate) was offered the role of Clarence Beeks, and almost did it, until he found out about the gorilla scene. Reportedly, he found it as beneath his dignity. British actors John Gielgud and Ronnie Barker (from the comedy duo The Two Ronnies) were considered for Coleman; Gielgud was reportedly a little old, and Barker didn't want to travel too far away from his home in the UK. - John Landis wanted a classic "Golden Age" actor who wasn't known for playing villains for the role of Mortimer. Originally, Oscar winner Ray Milland was suggested, but he failed a physical and couldn't get insurance, so they passed on him. Landis then thought of Ameche, but was told he was dead. Landis contacted the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) for confirmation, and they said Ameche didn't have an agent, and his royalty checks were sent to his son in Arizona. However, a Paramount Pictures secretary found Ameche in Santa Monica. It was Ameche's first film in about a decade.

No need to buy options at the beginning. They started selling options at around 140 that would be covered by an equal number of shares that they would buy at much lower bids later. Settling at the end left everyone with the difference between the bought and sold prices. So they were covering sales at 140 with sales purchases of a sliding value down to 29. They could easily handle margin calls with the cash they came in with and their profits from every sales that they had made. It's a lot like going light on a poker bet.

But then Coleman is left without a respectable and profitable job. Did you noticed that Louis was waiting patiently while Coleman, without much hurry, was putting on his gloves? This will maybe help explain my point better: A European tv show crew visited a private residence of a wealthy family in India. They were shown around the house (not large, but posh) and at the end they were introduced to 9 house workers. Family itself was just 4 people: parents and 2 young kids. So they were asked: do you really need full time 9 people working for you? Surely 4-5 would be more than enough for a house and family this size? To which the wife replied: in India, large amount of people working for you is a matter of pride. Of course we can do with less employees, but the fact that we hire 9 people means there are 9 families in the city that do not go hungry and have a roof over their heads.
