Watch: Ryan Gosling explains the market collapse using Jenga

“That can’t be right … the ratings agencies, the banks, the government? You’re saying they’re all asleep at the wheel?”

The Big Short, an upcoming movie based on Michael Lewis’ book of the same name, is a biographical look at the housing market collapse in the United States. And in one leaked teaser, the housing market collapse is explained using the Jenga.

 “What is that?” Mark Baum, played by Steve Carell, asks, as the Jenga blocks fall to the ground.

“That’s America’s housing market,” Jared Vennett, played by Ryan Gosling, replies.

Check out the clip below. The movie is scheduled for release today and it will draw millions – including originators past and present.
