Magnolia Pictures invites you and a guest to a special advance
screening.
*THE QUEEN OF VERSAILLES*
*SCREENING DATE:*
Monday 7/23 @ 7:30PM, Ritz 5 Theatre 214 Walnut Street Philadelphia
Directed by lauded filmmaker and photographer Lauren Greenfield, who won
the U.S. Directing Award for Documentary Film at the 2012 Sundance Film
Festival for this film, The Queen of Versailles is a character-driven
documentary about a billionaire family and their financial challenges in
the wake of the economic crisis.
With epic proportions of Shakespearean tragedy, the film follows two unique
characters, whose rags-to-riches success stories reveal the innate virtues
and flaws of the American Dream. The film begins with the family
triumphantly constructing the biggest house in America, a 90,000 sq. ft.
palace. Over the next two years, their sprawling empire, fueled by the real
estate bubble and cheap money, falters due to the economic crisis. Major
changes in lifestyle and character ensue within the cross-cultural
household of family members and domestic staff.
