In memory of Harris Savides, who died during filming. (Best photographic moment - a long shot of a glass sided house at night into which we see the kids break in). Christopher Blauvelt, Harris's operator on Restless, completed the often washed-out filming.
Who's worse - the kids who steal to become part of the lifestyle, or the celebs (Paris and Lindsay are two who get singled out) who are so wealthy and spoiled they leave their homes and ridiculous quantities of bling unguarded?
Israel Brossard falls for Katie Chang and they embark on a life of crime (was there a visual reference in a car at night to They Live By Night?). Hanger on friends including an impressive Emily Watson get in on the act until the inevitable happens, after which she appears to become a TV celeb (a nice touch).
Film is well made but as Q points out we don't care about anybody. Sophia's films seem all about aimless rich people, but she hasn't bettered Lost in Translation.
