8 Women

I just watched this movie called "8 Women" on VCD and decided to talk about its interesting storyline.
This guy called Marcel never showed his face in the movie but all the secrets of the 8 women were about him.
Marcel was murdered in his room and the murderer is among the 8 women (Gaby the wife, Augustine the wife's spinster sister, Mamie the mother-in-law and mother of Gaby and Augustine, Suzon the elder daughter, Catherine the younger daughter, Mrs. Chanel the housekeeper, Pierrette the younger sister of Marcel and Louise the Chambermaid .)
After some segments of French songs by the 8 women (btw it's a French film), stupid dances and such, it was discovered that:
1) Marcel's wife Gaby is having an affair with his business partner and is planning to runaway on the day he died.
2) Coincidentally, Pierrette, the daring and sexy sister, is also having an affair with the same business partner.
3) Pierrette also happens to love her own brother, the deceased Marcel, and is likely having an affair with him.
4) The obese housekeeper Chanel is a lesbian and is in love and having an affair with Pierrette (interesting women huh?)
5) Suzon is pregnant, and Marcel is the one who made her pregnant ( that beast)
6) However, Suzon is not Marcel's real daughter, as revealed by Gaby
7) Chambermaid Louise is a slut and has an affair with Marcel
8) Louise came to work at their house not because of Marcel but because she likes Gaby. ( In case you're wondering, yes, Louise is bi)
9) Pierrette tries to convince Gaby that loving women is nothing wrong because men are such a disappointment, they had a little cat fight regarding their lover and ended up on the floor with Pierrette on top of Gaby, and they starting making out. However the other family members came into the living room so they stopped. ( It's not a dirty scene is that's what you're thinking, but very sensuous so this movie should be m-18)
10) Mamie killed her own husband years ago because she cant stand living with someone she doesnt love, and conveniently inherited his stock shares
11) Augustine is secretly in love with Marcel and tried to seduce him but to no avail, of course.
12) Marcel is not dead. Catherine faked his death to reveal all the secrets in the family and convince his father she's the only one who loves him truly.
13) Marcel commited suicide in the end because of these dark secrets.
14) Out of 8 women, 4 is either lesbians or bisexuals. The other 4 are weird and even engage in other immoral stuff, what a fun movie! ( seriously I liked this film, if only i understand French so I know what they're singing because they dont provide subtitles for songs))
