Hollywood starlets Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Alba were among the many A-listers who stepped out in New York City tonight as The Cinema Society and Dolce and Gabbana hosted a screening of Madonna’s Filth And Wisdom at the Landmark Sunshine Theater.

While Madge’s directorial debut has received some decent reviews elsewhere, it appears the Big Apple has no love for the Material Mom. The New Yorker writes: “What vexes me most about Filth and Wisdom is the economics. Madonna has been a global star for decades. She has amassed a fortune, much of which presumably remains intact. She can’t have spent all of it on jodhpurs and conical bras. So why, when it came to launching herself as a film director, did she limit her budget to $365.23? Such, at any rate, is my estimate for the funding of Filth and Wisdom. If the actors were paid according to their talents, they cannot have cost more than forty bucks.”

Other stars who came out to catch Madge’s latest big screen effort included new bride Beth Ostrosky, Lipstick Jungle star Brooke Shields, Gossip Girl hunks Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford, expectant couple Liev Schreiber and Naomi Watts, designer Marc Jacobs, Ugly Betty stars America Ferrera, Vanessa Williams and Becki Newton and designer Charlotte Ronson.
