Finally! This thread is otherwise full of such damned dumbasses. She’s a racist white knt who is mad as hell that her assistant has a life she’d prefer. My friend’s daughter tutored her brothers for a time in NYC. Paris was a monster to her and everyone around her but the second she gets like serious about “her truth,” a whole slew of not-smart women come a running with the “aww” reaction. |
Are you the poster obsessed over the Chris Watts case? Girl........ |
In the documentary, her sister Nicky asks her if she ever apologized to her mom and dad for her behavior when they were young. Which was telling to me. I don't think her parents just sent her off to a therapeutic boarding school without grounding her, etc. No one mentions therapy in this documentary. I hope Paris is getting some. I think she could use it. |

SPOILER ALERT>
I forgot to say, RE her voice fry: we almost never see her face in those supposedly emotional scenes and confessions. They used voice-over (fried voice-over, to be precise) and very delicate animation sequences presenting Paris and her nightmares and fears. Any filmmaker would be thrilled to get this person's face in scenes that bring emotion...yet, they never embraced it. I'm pretty sure it's because she wasn't convincing. She has a very cold, static, expressionless face. Problem solved - bring some heartbreaking animations
|
Her toddler clothes still matched the couch at all times. |
Nicky reminds me of myself - the good child just trying to keep peace when I had a terrible, disruptive, horribly behaved sibling who tormented our parents. We don't hear anything about what Paris did to resort to this (other than sneaking out to clubs?) Either way, it's terrible and I can see how it impacted her and the circle of friends who visit towards the end. Definitely not saying I agree with those schools. But the doc was one sided. |
|
The segment with the boyfriend complaining she didn't pay attention to him right before she played a festival was cringe-inducing. I think there were tons of voice overs (taking their little fight and placing the conversation over other scenes, so I wonder how much they dramatized it).
Not a good look for the guy |
| The parents fodvwhatvthey thought was best. She was a rich teenager who could have been raped. killed, or kidnapped. She could have overdosed or gotten drugged. She was underage partying at clubs. They were desperate to keep her safe and whatever extreme measures used by the school were better than just letting her run wild and be badly hurt. Parenting is a thankless job. |
I agree. After all, Paris could have gone out and about all by herself and drop the Hilton name all together. But of course it was convenient to be one. |
| This is kind of interesting. I was no fan before and no fan now but I don't feel like I wasted time watching. |
I love that a person can know this online. She has no sense of self-it's almost eerie |
| Rich people are just like us with the same problems but more intense. I feel really sad for Paris. She was a wild rebellious teenager in NYC who was sent away by her parents because they didn't know how to deal with her and would rather paint a picture perfect image of their family. It's no surprise that when she came back from Utah, that she never told her parents what had happened. Why do that when her mom would just sweep it all under the rug. Her experiences also explains why she has such trust issues and why she has intense fear of being controlled. She seems so lonely. |
It doesn't sound like they spent much time with her or actually parented her. Image was everything. She needed her parents. |
| Nicky seems far more grounded; Paris seems hollow and empty and like she's acting. |
