Codename Dragonfly 1969

        CQ  is Roman Coppola's Sullivan's Travels . Except instead of taking place when it was made like Preston Sturge's 1941 movie Coppola's 2001 film takes place in 1969 and instead of the protagonist being a screenwriter, it's about a director. Okay, maybe it isn't that much like Sullivan's Travels .       In CQ  Jeremy Davies plays a film editor for a movie being made in Paris called Codename Dragonfly;  part Barbarella  and part Danger: Diabolik . There are many scenes showing how the movie within the movie is being made. Codename Dragonfly  is a movie I would probably watch so here is the DVD cover for this fantastical film. https://youtu.be/xOwLeB2j3p0?si=H_YfQYFQpBhsiKo-
