Oh, a film about filmmaking shot and projected on film. A director tasked with remaking the classic Les Vampires hires Chinese actress Maggie Cheung, playing herself, for the lead role. Communication problems is one thing but once the director has a nervous breakdown things get a little complicated.

I'd never heard of this film before so it was a pleasant discovery. It's a slightly nightmarish look at making films and there's a lot of awful people in tho particular cast and crew. It's also quite funny. There's some discussion about french art house films vs hollywood blockbusters which maybe is a little forced but was funny anyway.

Pretty odd ending too. but I'll go with it. Interesting film.
