  • 3 stars out of 4

    Exuberant version of the romantic French classic, using the rhymed couplets of the original. The English subtitles, in a rhyming translation by Anthony Burgess, are a distraction, though.

  • "...[Depardieu's performance is his] own magical achievement. It is expansive, funny, gross, dainty, and always humane....[It] finds surprising new life in a theatrical antique..."

    Technical Quality - nul point

    Poor picture quality and audio (only 2-channel) does not do justice to this masterpiece. It was obviously amateur night at Tartan Video when they mastered it.
