To Celebrate 'Maps To The Stars', We Look At Hollywood's Most Celebrated Dysfunctional Families

Can You Name Hollywood's Most Dysfunctional Family?

'Maps to the Stars' is the shocking tale of the Weiss clan - at first glance, just your average Hollywood family.

From the start, we learn that young Agatha (Mia Wasikowska) as a child tried to burn down the house while her family were asleep. Now, she comes back to Hollywood from a sanatorium to make amends. Her brother Benjie (Evan Bird) is also troubled and rebels against his parents’ wishes to not see Agatha. By the age of 12, he is addicted to drugs and has already been to rehab, but then he and Agatha decide to runaway together.
