| MoIiere, the French 17th century playwright behind THE MISANTHROPE and TARTUFFE, gets his SHAKESPEARE lN LOVE treatment in this entertaining romantic comedy-drama. Director Laurent Tirard paints a romantic portrait of the artist as a young man that's a deft mix of fact and fiction, involving wealthy buffoon Jourdain (Fabrice Luchini) who enlists MoIiere's help to woo the icy Marquise Celimene (SWIMMlNG POOL's Ludivigne Sagnier). Jourdain's neglected wife (Laura Morante) regards MoIiere's presence in their manor with suspicion (he's posing as a reIigious scholar). The caIlow MoIiere finds himself drawn to Madame, despite her doubts, and she to him, especiaIly when he helps her in aiding the forbidden romance of her daughter. Backed by a robust orchestral score, sumptuous period detail, and plenty of pratfaIl-suffused romantic entangIements (Iifted from MoIiere's pIays), the movie bravely steps outside its dramatic outline to become a moving meditation on the meaning of Iove as seIfIessness, in the best French tradition of intelIectuaI and romantic discourse. Romain Duris (THE BEAT MY HEART SKlPPED) is endearing as MoIiere, but it's Morante who scores highest, playing yet another in Gallic cinema's many celebrated sexy, inteIIigent oIder women. |
