Kids + Money

Run time: 32 min. | USA | Language: English

Only in L.A. can a 14-year-old rationalize dropping a grand on a purse. In a city that exalts materialism, young people from both the posh and poor sides of town share their feelings about money. High in the hills, Phoebe thinks nothing of having four nannies, while in East L.A., Luis remembers saving up for his family's fridge. Shocking for both its insights and entertainments, this film by Lauren Greenfield offers a striking portrait of kids and consumerism in America.

Rated 4.0/5 Stars my rating click to rate 1 2 3 4 5 MidnightHerringCass 4:21 PM		Great little doc about really rich kids leading a very materialistic life. It's nothing new - just on a much grander scale. Funny, shocking and sometimes even profound.
