Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSophie Marceau created the controversy at the end of the film by refusing to support it: "This shoot was a hell, I kept one of the worst memories of my life, I did not get along with Véra Belmont ( ...) Sincerely, I do not want to defend the film. " To which the director replied: "She loves me one day, the next day she hates me, I think she does not like to be run by a woman. She saw the Marquise much more petty-bourgeois than I can imagine her, she's the kind of actress, when you disturb her in what she's decided to do on the set, she hates you. "
- Goofs(at around 1h 25 mins) When a couple of bottles are knocked over and tumble to the ground, they don't shatter and you can clearly hear from the sound that they are made of plastic.
- Crazy creditsThe title appears twice in the opening credits. First thirty seconds in after the names of the main actors and then again about 3 minutes and 25 seconds in just before Véra Belmont's director credit.

Featured review
It is so nice to see a person encouraged to follow her dream - despite opposition from others, and despite having to overcome her own fears at times. The ending is sad but it fits with the film's whole tragic theme, and works well as the play-within-a-play. Excellent performances by Marceau and Giraudeau (as Moliere). Excellent insight into the lives of travelling players, and Louis XIV's era.
