I love this movie and the MESSAGES it sends to all of us. Wealth is not the path to happiness. Self Acceptance, Self Love, Self Honoring leads us to joy. Wealth does not change who you are it reveals who you are. It was sad to see the "innocent, caring, accepting love between Patrizia and Maurizio disintegrate before our eyes. For her to have him killed when she was so in love with him revealed her true character. The wealth revealed she was not able to handle the responsibility and the status that comes with prosperity. Take lessons fellow readers.
