Just watched this on iplayer for the first time in many years. It occurred to me that the Wall Street guy's loss of his toupee in jail might have been a reference to the junk bond king Michael Milken. I'm not suggesting that what Milken may or may not have done (and he's since been pardoned) is linked to what Ripley the Wall Street guy in the film is supposed to have done (acquired a bank by marriage then sold off chunks of it in a dishonest way, I think it was supposed to be), nor does the film say so directly. It was just, I think, using the loss of his toupee as a trope for "dodgy but immensely rich Wall Street guy in jail" which audiences would have "got" and giggled at in the Nineties. I guess we'd need to find a review from the time.Paulturtle (talk) 00:31, 12 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
