Plot: One of the most infamous, notorious films of all time; director Eric von Stroheim came up with an 8-hour film that the studio pulled from him -- and then chopped to a less-than two-hour running time. The missing footage, which is not likely ever to turn up, would be one of the most sought-after finds in cinema.

"Greed" examines the destructive psychological effects of wealth on a couple when the woman wins a lottery; as she gradually becomes more and more consumed with the piles of gold she now owns, the relationship falls violently apart... and comes to a stunningly shocking and ironic climax.
