View from the Couch: A review of Upgraded

In Upgraded (Prime, 2024), the viewer is provided with a behind the scene look into the rarified art auction business.  The heroine of the film, a low-level employee of the auction house,  is “upgraded” to a first-class ticket on her flight to London  The art that is being sold may be real; however, most of the characters aren’t what they seem.
