Résumé
Between 2000 and 2002, the value of the Bronfman family holdings in Seagram - swapped for shares in French media giant Vivendi SA - plummeted from US$8.2 billion to $2.2 billion. Edgar Bronfman Jr., heir to the family business, was… spoiled as a child but given little guidance, and saddled with responsibilities not befitting his experience or years. Not surprisingly, his speedy rise to the top of the Bronfman empire was followed by his stunning crack-up as he blundered his way to failure. Some strong language. 2004.
