Has anyone watched this? I watched in on Netflix last night after seeing something about it on Reddit. It's an interesting watch to see someone on top of the world battle to maintain their lifestyle.

quote:

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.


Trailer

The house is finally scheduled to be finished this year and after the film was completed the older daughter died of a prescription pill OD last year.

they literally were building that shite in one of the worst places at one of the worst times to do so

watching things like that really makes you...not feel better, but feel safer. like i could frick my life up and going from where i am to "slumming it" for a few years to get myself back to normal is not nearly the same drop that those people experienced...and they fell into the higher class lifestyle still
