The Cannes Film Festival…it's where deals get made,
producers get laid, and stars get paid. Sy Lerner, legendary
producer, figures to make this year’s Cannes a little
more fun. He wagers with a fellow film exec that he can
take any kid off the street and turn him into the most sought-after
screenwriter using the universal language of festival hype.
He meets Frank Rhinoslavsky, a cab driver from New York,
and transforms him into 'Frank Rhino’. They’re
charming Hollywood stars, bigwigs and investors with a blend
of hype and substance, lining up one of the greatest casts
with the biggest budget of all time. Who cares that there’s
no script?!
