Weaving several intriguing plotlines into one that culminates in an idyllic hotel paradise in Morocco, Claude Lelouch has created a stylish romantic adventure with AND NOW LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. Two strangers leading separate lives in different cities come together in this tale of mystery and fate. Valentin (Jeremy Irons) is an English jewel thief whose lifelong dream is to buy a boat and take a solo journey around the world; however, he is sent off-course and ends up in Morocco. Jane (Patricia Kaas) is a Parisian cabaret singer who has just suffered a tough breakup with her band's trumpet player and has taken a job in Morocco to escape. Both Valentin and Jane are afflicted with a strange disease that causes them to periodically blackout, suffering amnesia after the incidents. A Moroccan doctor who is treating both of them makes their connection. With dramatic photography of its locations (London, Paris, and Morocco), sultry cabaret tunes that narrate the story, and an impressive cast in both quality and quantity, AND NOW LADIES AND GENTLEMEN takes the romantic adventure genre to new heights.

How do you make the Rolling Stones — one of the world's great live bands — look boring? Make a documentary about their 1972 US tour as dull as this one, in which Mick Jagger and company give all they've got, but the director (Rollin Binzer) can't seem to deliver. It would help if the cameras were in the right place at the right time. This is depressing stuff, especially for fans.
The plot to this film was very slow and boring.The part english and french dialogue got confusing as it kept swiching from one to the other so one tended to loose track of the story. Half way through my wife fell asleep but did'nt miss much anyway.This is by far one of the worst films we have rented so far and if this ever reaches tv will avoid it like the plague.
You want to keep watching it, it has a nice feel, good storyline and superb acting by Jeremy Irons
I suspect the subtitles have put many people off, but it is worth persevering with them and the twisting storyline
