Critics Consensus

Scatter My Ashes At Bergdorf's is a fun documentary which ultimately doubles as an infomercial for the Manhattan store.

Steve Rose

Guardian

Even people who find fashion really, really interesting will be bludgeoned brain-dead by this fawning, attention-deficit infomercial of a documentary.

Time Out

There's probably a brilliant documentary to be made at New York department store Bergdorf Goodman. No such luck

A maddeningly unquestioning look at a retail citadel.

Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf's will bare little semblance to reality for most people. However, as a window into a world which few of us will enter, it makes an entertaining diversion from the everyday norm.

Close to hagiography-but who cares when faced with such an entertaining valentine as this.

Suspend rational thought and deep intellectual layered analysis and just enjoy this Birdseye view of how the insanely wealthy shop. It’s the back story to how gorgeous clothing is merchandised as an incredible art. If you loved ‘Devil wears Prada’ you’ll enjoy this ‘cousin’ docu-mercial! As an aside, it’s sad that they ripped down an incredible Vanderbilt super mansion to build Bergdorf Goodman, oh well, just another NYC quirk of constantly outdoing the last generation. Enjoy!

I am a total fashion person but this honestly was a fluff piece and totally disappointing. It really did not go deep enough into any of the subject matter and felt like an infomercial for the store. Yawn!

Not so much a movie as a long commercial.

Rich people talking about rich people... wasted 15 minutes of my life until I existed. Will waste another 5 minutes (worth it) doing this review. $3000 for a pair of shoes of everyone involved in making and selling the show can drive their expensive cars, go to their expensive vacations and buy their expensive homes. Brainwashing 101. Don't waste your hard earned money on this BS.
