Rich people are people too
24 April 2021
Wealthy people in most movies are jerks. That's no doubt a sop to the mostly poorer moviegoers who get to feel superior to the rich in this one way. It also no doubt reflects the film's industry trouble reconciling the enormous wealth of some in the business with its sense that it's on some some great progressive crusade.

As a group, the rich are no more likely to be jerks than anyone else. This is a rare movie with sympathetic wealhty characters, which makes it a bit more interesting.

The movie itself is good, not great. Some of the plot is improbable and hard to digest, and there's a soap opera character to some of the proceedings.

Still, the movie kept my interest for two hours, which is unusual for me.
