While fascinating interpreters of Doris Duke and her butler Bernard Lafferty, Susan Sarandon and Ralph Fiennes can't raise this movie beyond the level of "very depressing." It left me feeling flat and uninspired, having seen them portray such wasted and pathetic characters. Don't watch this movie after a tough day!

Fiennes and Sarandon did a good job as always, but the script could have been much stronger, more intriguing, and with more depth considering the real life weirdness galore of Bernard but especially Doris. I'm disappointed that Balaban didn't do a better job. Wait for the A&E Biography--they'd do a better job with "just the facts."

I found the story rather boring. No action, humor, nor drama. Other than Doris Duke being a wealthy philanthropist, she basically was a nobody. So I say Ho Hum!!
