GAZELLE SUMME FEATURED IN THE VERDICT: ESTATE PLANNING THROUGH FILM EPISODE
March 2026
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Here’s an interesting premise: The Talented Mr. Ripley as an estate planning case study. That’s the idea of The Verdict: Estate Planning Through Film, a podcast that unpacks trust, estate, and fiduciary issues through the lens of cinema.
BBR’s Gazelle Summe, Director of Portfolio & Wealth Advisory joined Hons Yung, Partner at Farella, to examine the film through their professional lenses — exploring control, responsibility, and beneficiary protection in a conversation that makes complex concepts accessible.
We hope you enjoy it!
