Leona Helmsley : The Queen Of Mean (1990)


Made for TV, aired September 23rd in the US.
Filmed entirely in Canada.
Based on truths.
The story: As a child, young Leona just couldn't get enough of her mother's attention.
Feeling unloved and jealous, she began her life with an ever-growing feeling of wanting more, no matter the situation or consequence.
As an adult, Leona went on to marry and divorce many men, trying to make more of herself and her pocketbook.
Working in real estate, she was the best at what she did.
Then she met the king of the real estate empire of New York, Harry Helmsley.
Leona made sure to make him hers as this would mean the best of everything for her and she would never have to want again.
Leona went from ambitious to mean and made many enemies because of her unkindness.
That's when someone decided they would throw evil queen Leona under the bus once and for all.
