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. -- (C) Magnolia

Review For Movie The Queen of Versailles
It's priceless.
Cath Clarke-Time Out Seriously, if this was the American Dream, couldn't we have come up with something better?
Tom Long-Detroit News Although it's a guilty pleasure, "The Queen of Versailles" is artful enough that both the prosecution and the defense could invoke it when the peasants cry "Off with their heads!"
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch This rags-to-riches-to-almost-rags-again queen has an endearing knack for looking on the bright side. You find yourself, by the end, wishing her well.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times "The Queen of Versailles" is funny, sad, infuriating, instructive. It's the American Dream inflated to ridiculous extremes, until it bursts.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic More than a social morality tale, this is a character study, with the title well chosen.
Rick Groen-Globe and Mail Humanizes the upper one percent in a 100-percent entertaining way.
Al Alexander-The Patriot Ledger Strangely entertaining and revealing documentary about a culture obsessed with money and people aspiring to a life they can't afford. Greed is good once again if you can borrow enough money to consume all you desire. Mind the debt gap.
Cameron Williams-The Popcorn Junkie ...their plight plays like the financial crisis in miniature. Or perhaps it's in macro.
Josh Larsen-LarsenOnFilm My problem with this riches to rags Americana story is that I felt no sympathy for the featured self-absorbed materialists.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews If you've ever wondered how that one percent of the richest lives, this film will show you how one family lives (they are probably back in the 99 percent now), and it ain't pretty.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope Both the quintessential documentary about the Great Recession, and quite possibly the most Schadenfreude-filled movie of all time.
Stephen Silver-EntertainmentTell A documentary about a rich couple riding the waves of wealth and greed and then plunging downwards.
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice A powerhouse documentary, the film shifts from simply being a fly-on-the-wall look at material decadence and moral decay into a study of a family trying to hold itself together during a trying period.
Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing a repetitive exercise in schadenfreude, and the Siegels don't do much to alter that... The Queen of Versailles leaves viewers with one feeling about the Siegels: Let them eat stale cake.
Steve Persall-Tampa Bay Times Documentaries are rarely as hilarious as this one. Well, the first half of it at least
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com [E]nds up an ever less slightly ungenerous look at the .01 percent than it might have been... But this is still a brutal film from many angles.
MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher One of the great unsayable truths about the American dream is that it is a bit of a Ponzi scheme ... our system admits a glimmer of hope that anyone, no matter how lowborn, can rise to the top.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Extremely funny and revealing ...
Philip French-Observer [UK] [Siegel] is now suing Greenfield for "misrepresentation". Well, I know whose side I'm on.
Charlotte O'Sullivan-This is London She epitomises a Western culture struggling to wean itself off debt.
Grant Rollings-Sun Online Greenfield's film is bathed in Florida sunshine, adding to the sensation that we're watching Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous with a Marxist punchline.
Tara Brady-Irish Times Never has grotesque wealth looked so unenviable, or its removal been so entertaining, as in this garishly watchable riches-to-rags documentary ...
Steve Rose-Guardian [UK] [Siegel] ultimately emerges as someone who belongs more in The Little House on the Prairie: ever cheerful, and triumphantly unimpeachable.
Antonia Quirke-Financial Times The temptation to be moralistic must have been overpowering, yet Greenfield finally manages to summon sympathy for people who at first seem vain, selfish and greedy.
David Gritten-Daily Telegraph Prepare to be shocked, disgusted and compelled.
