Ivan Nagy: Can we do this in sunglasses?
Narrator: Yeah.
Ivan Nagy: Because I don't want my eye to go into a kind of involuntary twitch, and then you'll say, "Oh my God, this guy's whacked out of his mind! His eye's going like this!"

Funny and pitiful all rolled into one, exposes Fleiss as the white trash she is.

First of the person who said you will like the characters in the film is out of his mind. The characters in this BBC documentary from Fleiss to her 50 yr disgusting exboyfriend Ivan Nagy are truly revolting. Cap it we see how Fleiss was brought....rich...My god. How pitiful that so many rich white punks out here in California sink their life down the toilent when you have honest hardworking people working day by day for nothing.

Anyhow, no surprise we learn that eventually the Fleiss household was one big dysfunctional family leading up to Fleiss turning tricks with the help of an old whore named Madame Alex.

The film was funny to me because anytime you see so many dysfunctional characters on screen you cant stop from laughing (like in NBC's Days of Our Lives and Passion).

I am surprised that by all Nick Broomfield encounters he doesnt fall on the floor laughing while filming this.

I know I would.

The best work Nick does here is really exposing Fleiss as the 20 cent whore she is and even when she was getting rich of her prostitute she still wanted more even gone as far as starting to squeeze out that old whore Madama Alex.

Another funny part that has to be seen is when see an old washed up porn star, literally begging for me to support her drug habit.

Um yeah, porn stars , theres another example of life's loosers. LOL

Highly recommend but only to people who really want to laugh their asses off from beginning to end, but then again "Laughter is the best medicine"

5 out of 10.
