Prête-À-Porter

It's Fashion Week, and for a few days Paris is transformed into an absolute fashion mecca. Robert Altman, the old master of the ensemble film, brings together an almost unmanageable cast of actors in this entertaining crime comedy, which perhaps looks a little more like trendy casual wear than fine haute couture, In addition, there are cameo appearances from the world of glitz and glamour, weaving different plot threads into a bitingly shrill 90s tabloid comedy outfit that ensures good humour and doesn't refrain from making the odd jab at a world that is entirely focused on appearance and surface. And in the middle of this vanity fair, the cinema dream couple Mastroianni and Sophia Loren meet again for the first time as long-separated lovers. (Florian Widegger)
