The Past and The Wolf of Wall Street

The Past is a real life and fully engaging movie.  It centers around a woman, her husband, who she wants to divorce, and the man she wants to marry.  I quote now from my good friend, Brooks Roddan:  " I  can't remember seeing a movie in which all the characters were  so admirable in such a human way; I cared for each of them.  Or a movie in which conscience, the thing that separates us from other animals, was so deftly portrayed that it became a character."  We saw the movie together.  Now The Wolf of Wall Street is a Hollywood big glamor movie, like American Hustle, but not as good.  It's about greed and excess to the max and ultimately gets boring.  Now tell me, which of these 2 movies would you rather see?
