Five Wives, Three Secretaries and Me

documentary

This was essentially a home movie...done by a rich heiress as a tribute/remembrance for her father. He had been married five times, inherited great wealth and nourished it throughout his life.

He was a strutting little peacock of a man, very full of himself and proud of his prowess with women. A rich Texan, an overt racist...to my mind the kind of arrogant ass capitalism has a knack of producing and inflicting on the rest of us. It was quite a while into the film before she revealed this guy's true nature which I thought was smart because if I had picked this up early I'd have turned it off and flung it across the room.
