Céline (Juliet Berto), a magician, and Julie (Dominique Labourier), a librarian, meet in Montmartre and wind up sharing the same flat, bed, fiancé, clothes, identity and imagination. Soon, thanks to a magic sweet, they find themselves spectators, then participants, in a Henry James-inspired 'film-within-the-film' - a melodrama unfolding in a mysterious suburban house with the 'Phantom Ladies Over Paris' (Bulle Ogier and Marie-France Pisier), a sinister man (Barbet Schroeder) and his child. (British Film Institute (BFI))

I'm sorry, but I just absolutely didn't enjoy this. Watching a film for three hours that pretends to play with reality and intertwines various events from the perspective of two women who are having fun... No, these are really not as eccentric "Daisies" as people say, they didn't give me anything at all, and I really wished for the film to finally end.
