As movie sequences go, it is the essence of simplicity.
Attractive woman walks into small grocery store. Attractive woman then exits grocery store clutching baguette.
Alas, the lady tasked with performing the role was Carla Bruni, first lady of France and actress of rather limited experience.
Her director? Woody Allen, perfectionism personified.

It wasn't a case of Miss Bruni fluffing her lines - she didn't have any. The problem, apparently, was that she kept staring at the camera - as an exasperated Allen and her husband, President Nicolas Sarkozy, looked on.
I guess looking directly into the camera is a hard habit to break. Lots of nice photos from the set.
