I happened to catch this on Sydney's SBS (great TV station that airs a lot of foreign language films) and I have to say that I enjoyed the film immensely. It begins with the question: how can a small financial company save itself from bankruptcy? Why - make a movie that will have universal appeal! The solution? Checkhov's Three Sisters - but, as one executive says, 'it must have nice tits in it!'

The script writing was very clever, and the acting well-done. It takes swipes at Hollywood without being "rude," and delivers plenty of laughs. The film, although a comedy, also delivers plenty for the "thinking person," with its clever plot twists. It plays out like a gigantic chess game, with the "little guy" in a tour de force. A winner in my book.
