Synopsis:

Forget 'Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," 'Cribs" and reality shows exalting American gluttony, and savor the more refined amenities on the coasts of southern France in the cynical Gallic comedy 'Priceless." In luxury hotels from Biarritz to Nice, Irène (Audrey Tautou) and Jean (Gad Elmaleh) trade sexual favors for gifts with well-kept sybarites on the far side of 60. Directed by Pierre Salvadori ('Après Vous") from a screenplay he wrote with Benoît Graffin, the movie is an amusing ball of fluff that refuses to judge its characters' amoral high jinks. Winking at the vanity of wealthy voluptuaries and hustlers playing games of tainted love, it heaves a sigh and says welcome to the human comedy. Because its shenanigans are so improbable, 'Priceless" is too frivolous even to be called satire. Nor is it sexy. Most of the time it stays discreetly outside the bedroom.

The trials and tribulations of a waiter in a big hotel and a con-artist in need of cash: a misunderstanding leads the young woman to believe that hes extremely rich and she attempts to seduce him. Once the truth is out, she leaves for the Côte dAzur and he sets out to find her.
