Synopsis by Bhob Stewart
This French musical features dialogue and songs by Paris University's Jacques Martineau on a wide range of subjects -- from immigrant workers to book-selling. Travel agency receptionist Jeanne (Virginie Ledoyen and the singing voice of Elise Caron) is always on the lookout for men, and she thinks she's found the perfect guy in Olivier (Mathieu Demy, son of musical director Jacques Demy) -- who turns out to be HIV-positive. Shown at the 1998 Berlin Film Festival, the film is also known as Jeanne and the Perfect Guy.
