In China, there are entire markets devoted to cell phone parts — not surprising when nearly every component is manufactured and assembled there.

Over a period of decades, he defrauded investors in his wealth management business of an estimated $18 billion, crushed the finances of thousands of people, and had a hand in the suicide of his son. Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer star as Bernie and Ruth Madoff in The Wizard of Lies, based on the book of the same name by NY Times reporter Diana B. Henriques. The film will premiere on HBO May 20, 2017.
