Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring Gets U.S. Release Date

Lionsgate Films will bring to Blu-ray director Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring (2013), starring Katie Chang, Israel Broussard, Emma Watson, Taissa Farmiga, and Claire Julien. The release will be available for purchase online and in stores across the United States on September 17th.

Coppola also wrote the script for the film, which is based on a Vanity Fair article by Nancy Jo Sales ("The Suspects Wore Louboutins").

Film shows a group of teenagers obsessed with fashion and fame who burglarized the homes of celebrities in Los Angeles. Tracking their targets' whereabouts online, the teens would break-in and steal designer clothes and possessions. Reflecting on the naiveté of youth, amplified by today's culture of celebrity and luxury brand obsession, the members of the Bling Ring introduce us to temptations that nearly any teenager would find hard to resist. What starts out as youthful fun spins out of control and reveals a sobering view of our modern culture.
