THE WOLF OF WALL STREET WOW! It seems to me that when you mix excellent writing with Leonardo DiCaprio,I end up feeling like I've been abducted,entertained within an inch of my sanity, and dropped into my bed to wake up in the morning thinking "did I really just watch that?" Matthew McConauhey's character sets the tone, or so it would seem.I can't remember much about the settings at the beginning of the movie, as McConauhey had my undivided attention from the start. As the plot moved forward, I found myself thinking "wow, and it's just getting started." It never ceases to amaze me when an actor that I've seen in several roles can make me believe his or her character, in spite of their superstar status. Leonardo delivers this consistently. I am old enough to remember "ludes". DiCaprio's rendition of "wasted on ludes" is simply spot on. His focus is evident, and the entire cast seems to fall in around his character as if there was only one way to play it. This is a must see movie. congrats to the cast and crew of this one for a masterful job well done. Bravo.
Thanx Y'all
