Bon film où l'histoire de la famille Betancours avec cette crapule de photographe nous montre bien tout le décalage qu'il peut y avoir avec la vrai vie du citoyen lambda et cette catégorie de gens fortuné. Les deux acteurs principaux sont très bon. Laffitte et Hupper.

Community Reviews
Viewers are captivated by the performances of Isabelle Huppert and Laurent Lafitte in 'The Richest Woman in the World', praising their dynamic and the film's sharp dialogue. While the film excels in its portrayal of complex characters and social satire, some feel it lacks depth in exploring its themes fully, with secondary plots feeling underdeveloped. The relationship between the characters is a highlight, though its central focus sometimes overshadows other narrative elements.
👍 Stellar performances by Huppert and Lafitte
👎 Some themes and subplots feel underexplored
