"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"

>Citizen Kane
>There Will Be Blood
>The Social Network
>Countless gangster films worshipped by stupid poor people in the ghetto
>Countless films about business in general (Wolf of Wall Street, Mamet's films/plays like GGR, Wall Street, American Psycho, etc.) worshipped by equally stupid white-collars
They're all about how money and power ultimately corrupt and cannot buy happiness. Is it the true nature of money or is Hollywood just spreading lies? Are there any films about the pursuit of the American dream that actually show the character reaching complete self-actualization and spiritual fulfillment, on top of socio-economical success? Is it even possible for a man to gain the world without losing his soul?
