Marquise(1997)
The rise and fall of a beauteous actress
Marquise Synopsis
Marquise is a drama about the rise and fall of a beauteous actress. As cheerfully portrayed by Sophie Marceau, the eponymous heroine is an engagingly ribald, but perhaps rather too modern, character. She rises from an impoverished background to become a favourite of the Sun King, Louis XIV, and the mistress of the celebrated Racine, who wrote roles especially for her; but her fate, in the end, is a tragic one.
Marquise (1997) is a drama and comedy film directed by Véra Belmont, released on August 20, 1997 with a runtime of 1h 51m. It stars Sophie Marceau, Bernard Giraudeau, Lambert Wilson and Patrick Timsit. Viewers rate it 5.5 out of 10 across 55 ratings.
