Chasing Madoff

Opens Friday, Aug 26, 2011 Synopsis: Documentary filmmaker Jeff Prosserman reveals the astounding true-life story of Harry Markopolos, the former Boston securities analyst who dedicated his life to exposing Bernie Madoff's calamitous Ponzi scheme before the entire world.

But it was a daunting task indeed, and it would be an entire decade before justice was served. From the initial shocking discovery to the final verdict, this is the story that the mainstream press failed to tell. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
