Review of The Queen of Versailles (2012) by A.o. Scott for The New York Times — 18 Jul 2012
Schadenfreude and disgust may be unavoidable, but to withhold all sympathy from the Siegels is to deny their humanity and shortchange your own. Marvel at the ornate frame, mock the vulgarity of the images if you want, but let's not kid ourselves.
If this film is a portrait, it is also a mirror.
