Is "The Devil Wears Prada" Women's "The Wolf of Wall Street”?
Fashion girls and finance bros may have found common ground at last: We both experience a tiny lapse in media literacy when it comes to our favorite films.

I’ve known a good number of guys over the years who cited The Wolf of Wall Street as their favorite movie of all time, but not because it points out the nastiest aspects of human greed. Instead, they were hooked on the excess and hedonism of Jordan Belfort’s criminal lifestyle and didn’t care too much that the movie (and the real-life story) ended with him divorced, behind bars, and publicly disgraced. I always thought it was hilarious that so many men left the movie with such a skewed message, until I recently logged into Netflix to rewatch an old favorite: The Devil Wears Prada.
