I'm searching for the title of a comedy about two young guys pretending to be movie directors or producers who run a casting in some mansion (probably a real director/producer's home). There were all sorts of people there among the candidates. There was a pretty girl model which became the love interest of one of the guys. I think she was a foreigner who didn't speak English that well, and she was accompanied by an older woman (maybe her mother) who didn't like the "director"'s interest in her daughter at all. If I remember correctly the girl asked him if he directed something famous and he said that he made "Rambo". After that she started calling him "Rambo".
I saw it on tv in 2002 or 2003, so it has to be at least a few years older than that.
It's Not:
Bowfinger (1999)
Glitch! (1988)
Tapeheads (1988)
Cecil B. DeMented (2000)
Screen Test (1985)
Rated X (2000)

I'm sure you'd have remembered more of the plot if this were it, but there are two young directors filming in a mansion in
Zombie Hamlet (2012)
. They aren't pretending, but they do oversell themselves.
Et ses mains ourdiraient les entrailles du prêtre
Au défaut d'un cordon pour étrangler les rois

I barely remember it so it might not be it, but the Sheen brothers here starred as porn movie directors, Rated X (2000):

Could it be "
On a dark and lonely road, stands a harmless looking man
Pick him up at your peril

I found it and watched it - it's not that one either. Oh well, I guess the search will continue. Thank you once more for your movie suggestion

"Tapeheads" just might be it, I'll have to watch it to be sure if it's the one or not. Thank you for the trace

This reminds me of Tim Robbins and John Cusack in Tapeheads (1988).
If not, try
Cecil B. DeMented (2000)
.

St-Ar (I stil remember you by that name
), this movie Glitch has got a very similar plot but unfortunately is not the one I'm looking for. I even had a thread here 2-3 years ago for another movie which turned out to be "Glitch" and I saw it again back then so I'm sure.
