Marquise (1997)

Marquise (1997) - Drama Movies 111 minutes. Marquise - Die Rolle ihres Lebens, Markiza, Markiz, 路易十四的情妇(台). 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. france, versailles, woman director, molière, 17th century, king louis xiv
