The Joneses centers around a "family," that is a marketing ploy to encourage friends and neighbors to purchase the products they own/use. I was fascinated by this look at advertising and the dark side of materialism. Secretly, I thought this would be a fun job for SC. Have you seen it?

I loved it and posted about it a while back I think? Demi Moore was great! I would like that job too, but I felt bad about how it worked out in that town... very original film I thought!
ReplyDeleteI vaguely remember hearng about it! Thanks for reminding me. XOXO
ReplyDeletei never heard of this film, but if it helps me get my hank moody fix in between seasons of californication, sign me up! i love demi so much too. although i kind of liked her better married to bruce willis....anywho, hope your fall is getting off to a great start! can't wait to see you bust out your cool weather wardrobe! keep us enlightened! xoxo
ReplyDeleteNot heard of this one - may have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteOooo! That looks interesting. I must add that to my movie watching list.
ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting movie! Companies use all of us to sell their products...the smart ones get paid in some fashion for the advertising!
ReplyDeleteThat would make me one of the "not" smart ones! lol
ReplyDeletebut I don't mind

My friends told me they made this movie about me. Umm no, but that was very funny. I liked this movie - it was funny and really genuine about what is done in the marketing world.
ReplyDeleteHave not seen it yet. I may have to now, thanks for the heads up SC!!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you for this! I LOVE learning more about the secrets behind marketing- I will definitely be watching this soon now!

ReplyDeleteWe rarely go to the movies - we usually wait for them to come out on Netflix.

I would love to see this movie. It is always nice to have the latest and greatest, but when it comes right down to it, my pets, friends and family are the most important! Everyone has become so caught up in having the most gorgeous and expensive things...something I, too am definitely guilty of!!
