Therefore, with an automatic reaction, some may assume that movies which cover business related topics like economy, sales, trading, entrepreneurship, etc. are not interesting.

I will add them to the list in time. So feel free to suggest your favorites in the comments below if you think they should have been here. Have a good time!
