Moliere

Bubbling with wit, stellar performances and lavish cinematography, Moliere stars multi Cesar nominated French actor Romain Duris as Moliere, a down and out actor cum playwright up to his ears in debt. When the wealthy Jourdain (Cesar winner Fabrice Luchini) offers to cover that debt so that Moliere's theatrical talents might help Jourdain win the heart of a certain widowed marquise, hilarity ensures. Disquised as a priest, Moliere becomes a guest in Jourdain's wife, Elmire. But, soon after, the confrontation between Elmire and Moliere turns seductive. Too busy to notice. Jourdain enlists the aid of a well connected and scheming acquaintance to help him pursue the widowed marquise. Romantic yearning, human foibles and laughs galore all characterize Moliere, a delightful film that slyly captures your heart. (2007)
