Photographer/filmmaker Lauren Greenfield examines the power of money by focusing on a few people who are driven to the narcissistic standards that our society has created for wealth and beauty. This is NOT a dazzling display of riches and luxury, but an examination of a few people who have been affected by their own desires. Greenfield tries to bring this home (literally) with a comparison of her own dedication to her career. Not really that interesting. While there are fascinating stories and plenty of social commentary, the outrageous opulence isn’t the focus. Her last doc (The Queen of Versailles) did it better.
