This movie was a reminder of the importance of striving for balance... so many of the characters featured clealry lost sight of the damage done to themselves and their relationships in their obsessive pursuit of money for the sake of it. Lauren Greenfield's decades of chronicling gets showcased in this expose - and as someone raised in LA during these decades, it speaks the truth. Bravo Lauren. This should be required viewing for all students of modern culture in the developed and developing world...

... View MoreI am not sure what the film maker, laura greenfield, is going for here, but she fails miserably. a documentary about self involved, self indulgent and greedy people might sound like fun, but it's not. believe me. you won't feel a drop of sympathy for anyone here. one thing i did notice. ms. greenfield seems to blame her mother for her own shortcomings. her mother is having none of it. proceed at your own risk.
... View MoreWe live in uncertain times, people are obessessed with their image, their bodies, their 'fame' and their popularity, but there's one thing we are all crazy about...Money. This is a documentary which goes behind the scenes of the lives of the rich and famous, showing how these people have given up their souls, humanity and empathy in order to get rich. A great documentary which is highly informative, detailed and entertaining. It's not for everyone, but everyone should watch it.
