Zachary Gordon takes Greg Heffley to a 3-dimensional world from the pages of the best selling illustrated “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” series by Jeff Kinney to a major motion picture from 20th Century Fox.
1987’s emblematic film on the era of excess “Wall Street” by director Oliver Stone continues in “Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps” wherein Gordon Gekko (played by Michael Douglas) is seen being freed from prison whose mementos to take home are his personal pocket items and a first generation handheld phone.
