LAURENT LAFITTE TO LEAD
THE IMAGINARY MOLIERE
Here is another costume movie drama set to arrive from France sometime this year! Laurent Lafitte and Jeanne Balibar, alongside Stacy Martin and
Olivier Py, will star in THE IMAGINARY MOLIERE (Le Molière imaginaire) movie which is also being helmed by Py. Theater of the Palais Royal in Paris, February 17, 1673. The King's troupe is in the middle of a performance of Le Malade Imaginaire when Molière begins to spit blood. Despite everything, he decides to continue playing. During his agony, he allows the events and ghosts that have made his life to enter the space of the theatre. Engaging in a struggle to preserve his dignity, he undertakes to transfigure his death into the instrument of a final burst of laughter.

This sounds more like a comedy rather than drama. Laurent Lafitte looks really charming.
ReplyDeleteWell it will have a tragic end given that he dies LOL Reminds me of a clip I saw at Facebook about a guy who before he died recorded his voice saying LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT! and then it was played at the funeral when his coffin was being lowered into the soil, because he wanted his friends to laugh at his funeral, not cry.
Deletei don't care if people cry or laugh at my funeral, just want them drunk. Anyway, I won't have a funeral, I'm donating my corpse so they can make compost out of it. The latest fad
DeleteI think I have seen that somewhere, twould be nice to have a tree growing out of us one day LOL
DeleteI always said to mix my ashes with some wildflowers and toss me in a field.
DeleteThis the best way to hung out with the bees in eternal life and turn into honey LOL
DeleteI think I'd like this one. How hard it must be to have the composure to carry out your performance even in the face of death.
ReplyDeleteAnd to make people laugh about it!
DeleteNot sure that I would carry on a performance if I was spitting up blood.
ReplyDeleteProbably not, but for him it was the last performance in the whole life of performances.
