Jeff Lurie, the Philadelphia owner, made his money as a Hollywood producer. That explains his worldview.

My understanding is that he was actually a flop in Hollyweird.
His money was inherited. Grandpa owned a string of theaters around Boston.

Your understanding is correct...I am sure. I always saw him billed as "Hollywood producer", not "movie theater heir" Being unfamiliar with the inner business of Hollywood, I assumed he made money enough money on his own to buy contolling interest in am NFL franchise.

He still is a product of that peculiar Hollyweird culture.
