‘Veni Vidi Vici’ Scandalizes Sundance With Infanticide, Brangelina and Balenciaga
Austrian film "Veni Vidi Vici" managed a jaw-dropping premiere on Thursday thanks to brutal public shootings, infanticide and "Succession" parallels.
The film follows a ruthless and charismatic billionaire family whose patriarch guns down innocent citizens in his free time, and left many speechless at the Egyptian Theater in Park City. Rupp and his wife, a high-powered lawyer played by Urisna Lardi, justify their crimes, buy or destroy their detractors and retire to 3,000 thread count sheets without a care in the world. Hoesl said he was inspired by a real life European hedge fund manager he declined to name, though he noted this man sat on the board of Deutsche Bank and owned private hunting land in Namibia.
