What can i say? I loved it. It is pompous and arrogant in a stereotypically French manner while seemingly denouncing pompous and arrogant French cinema. This film within a film constantly draws attention to itself by putting form in the forefront, reminding us of Le Mepris or 8 1/2, but does a much better job than Shadow of the Vampire in its reliance on an old classic as a base for a modern film.
