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 sailboat and take a solo journey around the world; however, he is set off-course and winds 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.
