I've watched Molly's Game a few times now, and I really like it, and I get a bit more from it each time. But I have one issue with
her refusal at the end to give up the hard drives, claiming that she would lose her "name", then telling her lawyer the reason is because "It's all I have left."
To that, I yell at the screen, NO! You have 5 MILLION dollars. And like it or not, the ultimate reason we work is for money, because it can be traded for whatever else you want, with very few exceptions, of which the list of exceptions gets increasingly small, the more you have. Sure, we also work because, if you're fortunate, you love what you do, and/or you're making a difference in the world, but at the end of the day, having your $5M back, and you can ignore any of the negatives that "losing your good name" would cause.
Heck, just the thought of what she would very likely encounter in prison, would be enough for pretty much anyone to take the deal. So I kinda think they wrote this part into the plot just to achieve a bit more drama towards the end. Cuz it just ain't real.
