Greed with Michael Winterbottom | Picturehouse

Sam Clements talks to director Michael Winterbottom about his new film, Greed.  Steve Coogan stars in a gleefully grotesque satire about the filthy rich. Set in the glamorous and celebrity-filled world of luxury fashion, Greed is a fictional story about the rise and fall of a British retail mogul, as seen through the eyes of his biographer (David Mitchell). To save his reputation after a damaging public inquiry, self-made billionaire Sir Richard McCreadie (Coogan) decides to throw a spectacular 60th birthday party on the Greek island of Mykonos. But as the guests arrive in the build-up to the bash, McCreadie’s empire begins to fall apart.
