In his 2013 documentary Seduced and Abandoned, Alec Baldwin — together with writer/director James Toback — served up something of an homage to both the Cannes Film Festival and the film industry, marvelling at the cinematic allure of the event itself while also lifting a comedic lid on the less-romantic wheeler-dealings of the market.
Through the pretense of trying to find investors for their own project — a loose Last Tango In Paris remake set in Iraq, starring Baldwin — the film explored the contemporary world of the business, where art sits vastly lower down the ladder than profit ("If I make a movie, all I think is, 'what's the profit?," Avi Lerner literally tells the pair) and how cast "bankability" is the sole budget determining.
