Blanc becomes convinced his sanity is slipping away. He is seen going berserk at
Cannes with a series of starlets. At
Cannes, he meets festival head
Gilles Jacob whom he persuades to give the room number of
Gerard Depardieu. After
Blanc is accused of attempted rape, he goes to a psychiatrist who prescribes peace and quiet in the country. He goes to the Provencial estate of his friend
Carole Bouquet. It is there
Bouquet and
Blanc meet
Blanc's devilish double Patrick Olivier. After a lengthy chase the two sit down and decide that
Blanc will take only the high quality roles while Olivier will do the rest.
