SummaryMolière has been released from prison by wealthy bourgeois, Monsieur Jourdain, who settled the young actor's debts on the understanding that he will teach him the craft of the stage.

An extravagant and thoroughly irresistible story of intrigue, romance, comedy and artistic inspiration.

Though it might be Moliere for Dummies, it's infinitely more fun than French director Ariane Mnouchkine's tedious 1978 film portrait, a Moliere for Smarties that ran four hours plus and, like Tirard's movie, explored the comedy of tragedy.

As Molière, Romain Duris is frisky and, playing the wife of his benefactor, Laura Morante proves once again that she is one of the most intelligent and attractive actresses in the world.

Showing up for Molière eager for the story of one of the theater's greatest comedy writers would be unwise. It's not that kind of party.
58
It's like a breeze so slight it doesn't leave a tickle.

The Great Playwrights for Dummies series that began with "Shakespeare in Love" continues with Molière, a French clone of that grating and smarmy Best Picture winner.

A whimsical but flat-footed attempt to account for several lost months in the life of Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, known to the world as Molière.

Molière est un dramaturge et acteur qui veut succèder au théâtre. Il est pris dans les affaires de Monsieur Jourdain. Il aide M. Jourdain avec son aventure amoureuse. Pendant cette aventure, il tombe amoureux avec Mme. Jourdain. Nous observons alors la transformation de Molière d’un mauvais acteur en un dramaturge magnifique. Le film est très mal conçu parce qu’il dénature le personnage de Molière. La distribution du film est très mauvaise et n’est pas charmante. Le film ne fournit pas de bonnes informations sur les pièces de Molière. Le film change beaucoup l'histoire de Molière et crée une image fausse du 17ème siècle. Le film ne donne pas hommage à l’histoire du 17ème siècle et la vie de Molière. La romance dans le film est distrayant du thème et de la valeur historique. C’est film n’a pas les components pour un film historique. Il a un image fausse de l’histoire de Molière. Ne regarde pas le film Molière si vous aimez l'histoire parce qu’il en donne une image fausse.
