Casanova
He was the world’s most notorious seducer. A swashbuckler, master of
disguise and wit – and it was said no woman could resist
Casanova’s amorous charms. Until now.
For the first time in his life, the legendary Casanova (Heath Ledger) is
about to meet his match with an alluring Venetian beauty, Francesca (Sienna
Miller), who does the one thing he never thought possible: refuse him.
Through a series of clever disguises and scheming ruses, he manages to get
ever closer to Francesca. But he is playing the most dangerous game he has ever
encountered – one that will risk not only his life and reputation, but also
his only chance at true passion.
Critic Reviews:
- " A fun, lighthearted, energetic (if insignificant) romp that features
fine work from Ledger, Platt and Irons. I was grinning for most of the running
time. " – Austin Kennedy
- " Overall, Casanova is silly but amusing. " –
Andrew Sarris
- " In the hands of this fine ensemble cast, the ordinary period piece is
turned into a light and breezy bit of entertainment with clever dialog, action,
and a touch of romance. " – Cherryl Dawson and Leigh
