Director:
Ben Patterson
Premiere:
University of Michigan (October 2017)
Select Festivals:
DOC NYC
About:
About the successful shoe designer, before and after prison.
I previously wrote about the film for DOC NYC’s program, saying:
Ben Patterson tells the unlikely rags to riches story of Steve Madden, who went from selling shoes out of the trunk of his car to becoming the mogul of a billion-dollar designer footwear empire. Then, at the height of his success, he was sentenced to prison because of his entanglement with Jordan Belfort, the infamous “Wolf of Wall Street,” as recounted in the Martin Scorsese film. This candid film offers a look at how the colorful, genuine Madden rebuilt his empire and his life following his release.
