The Bling Ring

Synopsis

Ever wondered what it would be like to strut around in swanky Hollywood mansions? In 2008, a group of Los Angeles teenagers realised that, if they could figure out when their favourite celebrities weren't at home, they could track down their houses and break in. After burglarising the homes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Orlando Bloom for extravagant clothes and accessories for their own wardrobes, they were caught and arrested, becoming famous themselves - for all the wrong reasons. Director Sofia Coppola tells their story with a talented young cast, raising interesting questions about youth culture's unhealthy obsession with celebrity.
