And the winner is...
Film

Oscars (where the majority of the props for the opening number were made out of pizza boxes and tin foil) the Kodak Theatre was returned to its full splendour with no expense spared on the dresses, the stage or anything that glittered.

From Paris With Love
Film

Directed by Pierre Morel

Film

Directed by Michael Moore

Michael Moore, director and producer of five of the top-grossing documentaries in cinema history, is a multi-millionaire several times over. Capitalism: A Love Story is his latest diatribe against ‘the system’ which has afforded him more wealth than an average lottery winner.
