From Oscar-winning writer and director Sofia Coppola (Lost in Translation), The Bling Ring tells the story of a group of teenagers who burglarize celebrities' homes in Los Angeles. Tracking their targets' whereabouts online, they break in and steal their designer clothes and possessions. Through the Bling Ring members' eyes, we see temptations that almost any teenager would feelwhat starts out as teenage fun spins out of control and leaves us with a sobering view of today's culture of celebrity and luxury brand obsession. Inspired by actual events, The Bling Ring stars Emma Watson alongside new talent Israel Broussard, Katie Chang, Claire Julien and Taissa Farmiga. Based on the Vanity Fair article "The Suspects Wore Louboutins" by Nancy Jo Sales, the film also features Leslie Mann, Gavin Rossdale, and real-life Bling Ring victim, Paris Hilton.
