Now Playing

The setting is an ornate mansion in Manhattan at two dinner parties - one in the early 1900s, hosted by a robber baron; and the other, 100 years later, hosted by a contemporary master of high-risk arbitrage. In Old Money, Wasserstein deftly observes how social conventions, professional eminence and familial relationships have changed (little) and remained the same (largely) for over a century.
