Arbitrage ****

Featuring an award-caliber performance by Richard Gere, "Arbitrage" tells the story of Robert Miller, a high-flying financier on the level of Bernie Madoff. The movie deals with a period in which Miller must close a sale to contain a threat to his empire and juggle several personal crises, most of them his own doing. Susan Sarandon plays the wife who may be tiring of the games he plays. Taut and well-written, the movie builds suspense in a credible, rarified world.
