As was LA GRANDE BOUFFE, several years earlier and also a social satyre of the modern consumierism society and its search for a meaning in life and excess of all kinds, this movie explores the lethal side effects of capitalism and the greedy, ruthless and inhuman multinationals for the modern world. This story is totally deplaced, offbeat, weird but facsinating. It uses the metaphor tool which works so much. It is so efficient, especially starring the likes of Michel Piccoli, Jean-Pierre Marielle and Jean Yanne; all great specialists for this kind of f...up French films of this crazy period, today totally lost, forgotten. But this movie remains disturbing, a real gem for me. However not for all audiences.
