About this movie

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 largest privately-owned 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.

Why make a movie on how these people have more money then they need. Show the Americans why there's people like this when we have such a high homeless population. No need for people like this

The people, ESP the wife, are ridiculous, but this shows you how the rich get richer; plus, it reveals how evil our banks are and how badly they control/manipulate everything!
