Movie Info
In her heyday Heidi Fleiss was at the center of a highly successful prostitute ring. The most interesting part of her business was the fact that her clientele reportedly comprised various Hollywood stars. Who can forget her legendary black book? Labeled "Madam to the Stars," this fascinating documentary exposes her world. Includes interviews with Heidi and retired L.A. police detective Daryl Gates. ~ Laura Mahnken, Rovi

[A] superior example of ambush journalism.

Audience Reviews for Heidi Fleiss: Hollywood Madam
Ah, the good old 90's... after watching half of VH1s SOBER HOUSE Season 2 (starring Heidi Fleiss, Tom Sizemore et al), I came across this movie & just couldnt resist. Such a fun romp thru the slippery slimy underbelly of sleazy Hollywood (that even the film looks dirty lol.) These ppl just smile at the camera with so much hatred in their eyes that even Heidi comes out looking like an innocent victim. You continually think to yourself what a load of BS these ppl just told the interviewer. So if you like smarmy flicks, this ones for you.

Top Headlines
Every person within this documentary is fascinating and throughout you never quite know who is telling the truth and who is just out to outdo the other person.
Some great angles covered here from a viewing prospective, Hollywood madam, secret clientelle list that could be revealed, sex,, drugs, power, informants, conspiracy. The documentary makes for a great subject matter along with some very direct questioning back and forth from Nick Broomfield.
In truth this documentary doesn't reveal a whole lot from Heidi's prospective and many questions still remain a mystery to that effect, however, two particular characters of interest do feel the spotlight with tales that you are never quite sure is the truth.
An unexpected view was that of Heidi facing prison and her mindset leading up to that, regardless of the charges, this showed a fear and possibly the vulnerable, human side of her, in fact out of the three characters, Heidi, doesn't seem to come out of this as the worst.
