With the mantra "greed... is good," Gordon Gekko encapsulates the 1980โs drive for excess and ruthless ambition in Oliver Stoneโs "Wall Street" while big traders mirror his notoriously bad behaviour with insider trading and drug use in real life. In the 80s, CEOs see their salaries skyrocket while women struggle to overcome office boysโ clubs. And, the quest to climb higher also leads to one of the โ80s biggest tragedies, as NASAโs Space Shuttle Challenger explodes during lift off, claiming the lives of all on board.
