Synopsis:
This essential piece of cinema for romantics everywhere follows the fictionalized footsteps of what may have inspired one of France's literary greats, Moliere, to pen his infamous masterpiece 'Tartuffe'. Rotting away in prison and in a mountain of debt, Moliere's only hope of freedom is to help the buffoonish Mr. Jourdain seduce a beautiful young widow behind his wife's back. Disguised as a priest, he moves in with the Jourdain family to begin a calamitous, hilarious and ultimately romantic set of adventures.

Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme revisited - Molière review by CC

Spoiler Alert
26/03/2018

This is very funny, but you will definitely get the most out of it if you know Molière's plays. There are references to several of them, and whole chunks of the dialogue have been lifted pretty much straight from the plays, primarily Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme.

Molière the biopic - Molière review by AMG

Spoiler Alert
05/02/2013

it would be better to watch the Bourgeoise Gentilhomme itself. And Molière is no Shakespeare.ça ne m'amuse pas beaucoup. Good for background, perhaps something got lot in translation

Shakespeare en amour - Molière review by Pete W

Spoiler Alert
10/01/2009

Someone in France saw "Shakespeare in Love" and decided to do something similar about their national playwright, Moliere. Entertaining enough but I expect it would have been more interesting if I had more than a long forgotten French A level standard acquaintance with the works of Moliere
