Getting into the head of Madoff
STOCKBROKER, investment adviser and financier Bernie Madoff made headlines around the world when he was arrested for perpetrating perhaps the largest financial fraud in US history in 2008. The new HBO Original Film, The Wizard of Lies, examines his Ponzi scheme - his deception, lies and cover-up.
Oscar-winning actor Robert De Niro plays Madoff, with Golden Globe winner Michelle Pfeiffer starring as his long-time spouse and unwitting partner Ruth during the events that would lead to financial ruin for countless people and institutions, as well as his and his family's destruction.
