The cast list for the adaptation of Andrew Ross Sorkin's Too Big to Fail is enthralling:

-- Paul Giamatti at Ben Bernanke
-- Topher Grace as Jim Wilkinson
-- Ed Asner as Warren Buffett
-- Tony Shalhoub as John Mack
-- James Woods as Dick Fuld
-- Dan Hedaya as Barney Frank
-- Cynthia Nixon as Michele Davis
-- Michael O’Keefe as Chris Flowers
-- Ayad Akhtar as Neel Kashkari
-- Kathy Baker as Wendy Paulson
-- Billy Crudup as Timothy Geithner
-- Joey Slotnick as Dan Jester

Billy Crudup is an extremely kind bit of casting, isn't it?
