Irma Vep (1996)



Producer: Georges Benayoun
Director: Olivier Assayas
Screenwriter: Olivier Assayas
Cast: Maggie Cheung Man-Yuk, Jean-Pierre Leaud, Nathalie Richard, Antoine Basler, Nathalie Boutefeu

Unusual film about an obsessed direrector remaking a silent classic. Interesting to see Maggie Cheung playing herself. However, the film was not so accessible. If you are a fan, it's worth seeing, if not I couldn't recommend it. Others, though, would disagree with me!
