ONE 4 ALL

Irina, Olga, and Macha are all struggling actresses, beautiful but aware that, as the millenium ends, they're on the wrong side of 30 without much personal or professional satisfaction. A roadshow of “The Three Sisters” flops, but the way men keep hitting on them gives Irina's airline-attendant sister Olivia an idea. She's constantly harassed by jet-setters and executives she books on the Concorde; using her access to the customer database, she arranges wealthy male travelers to have seats next to Irina, Olga, or Macha, after the beguiling actresses have thoroughly memorized the rich suckers' habits, interests, and weaknesses. It's the billion-air role of a lifetime for these schemers, but can we trust what we're seeing? Commissaire Bayard, chief of the Paris vice unit, is not only on the case of the charming gold-diggers, he's also pitching a fact-based screenplay idea to a jailed film producer (a rap sheet more common than you might think!). Is ALL 4 ONE the bona fide caper or the Claude Lelouch confection based on what went down? Playing a cinematic shell-game with his audience and juggling some of the brightest names, new and old (Anouk Aim?e reprises her role from the same director's classic “A Man and a Woman”), in the Gallic movie scene, one of France's most popular directors spins a funny, sexy, tres magnifique entertainment.
