Wolfish William plays an industrialist who corners safety match production with epic financial shenanigans. Warner Bros. proclaimed that plots for their films were “torn from today’s headlines”—this one could easily be torn from ours, as well. “William’s Paul Knoll is an amoral dynamo, crushing competition and human souls with equal gusto.” —Michael Mashon, BFI London Film Festival Guide
