Luc Moullet's own bio-pic.

After having it listed on eBay for years,I was happy to see it finally sell over the weekend. Having assumed it had no subtitles due to being a DVD from France, I took one last look before parcelling it up,and was shocked to see English subtitles listed,leading to me gazing at the glamour of death.

Note:Some spoilers in review.

View on the film:

For what is currently his final feature film, writer/lead actor/director Luc Moullet continues remaining loyal to his French New Wave (FNW) roots in his collaboration with cinematographer Pierre Stoeber, whilst bending FNV to absurdest, surreal Comedy. Backed by a sweet low-key score from his brother Patrice,Moullet casts a warm comedic atmosphere from dissolves created by Moullet planning where his cast will stand on the mountainside. Breaking the 4th wall in a loose adaptation of Cecil B. DeMille's The Whispering Chorus (1918),the screenplay by Moullet reels in wry laughs from Moullet faking his own death to raise funds for his next production (!), which Moullet (who plays a very funny dazed version of himself) spins into light satire of film makers being self-important over their work. Giving himself a ID cover in order to watch people pay tribute to him, Moullet twirls with a twist involving the passing of another film maker of the French New Wave.
