Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOriginally, Louis de Funès only considered a TV adaptation of Molière's play. Encouraged by the actor's enormous popularity however, the producers took the risk to bring it to the big screen. Sadly enough, "L'Avare" ended up much being much less successful than de Funès' pictures usually were.
- Alternate versionsGerman version is heavily cut (ca. 50 min).
- ConnectionsFeatured in Louis de Funès intime (2007)
Featured review
It is manageable with Funes's histrionics
This person is a star of comedy, truly showing a prowess in the toughest genre, celebrated in France and the world, and so forth. Just this is a video filmed thing which I thought was a TV movie at first, nothing at all that is ok, just that wondering why it just was not filmed on regular film, some of the "sets" look drab and dingy. Otherwise this shows more histrionics from Funes. Also (I watched a version where Russian is being dubbed over and my mom is translating) I am told this is done with a Shakespearean language, which I am ok with this marmalade jargon. But I also like plain spoken lucid usual.
