The Banker
“Don't pay the man. Be the man.”
Director
George Nolfi
Screenplay
Brad Kane, Niceole R. Levy
In the segregated America of the 1960s, two daring African American entrepreneurs, Bernard Garrett and Joe Morris, hatch a plan as brilliant as it is risky: to buy banks and real estate and open up access to housing and credit for their community. To get around the racism of the financial system, they hire a white working-class man to serve as the public face of their operations. Based on a true story, this is a period drama about the fight for integration and for a piece of the American dream, told with elegant style and a current of protest running beneath.
