Soigne ta droite (1987)
Film Synopsis
Once a popular and highly fashionable cineaste, an ageing filmmaker must now content himself with making films to order, usually for the most dubious of clients. Known as the Idiot or the Prince, this once committed auteur is now in a position where he can't afford to turn down any offer of work, so he gladly accepts the seemingly impossible task of making a film within a day. His work done, he then climbs aboard a plane in the hope that he can find someone to buy and exhibit his latest celluloid atrocity. As he does so, a group of musicians, the Rita Mitsouko, are struggling frantically to complete their next album. Fortune smiles on the Idiot. An admiral and his wife are willing to take his reels of film off him, with the intention of screening them on the banks of the River Seine...© James Travers
