Movie Description
VALMONT is director Milos Forman's witty and playful adaptation of Choderlos de Laclos's famous novel LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES, about the sexual machinations of two jaded 18th-century French aristocrats. In order to get revenge on the man who jilted her, the wicked Marquise de Merteuil (Annette Bening) persuades a former lover, the rakish Vicomte de Valmont (Colin Firth), to deflower the man's virginal young fiancée. Valmont agrees but presents the marquise with his own challenge: If he succeeds in seducing Madame de Tourvel (Meg Tilly), a virtuous young wife known for her unshakable fidelity, the marquise must grant Valmont a night in bed. The cold-blooded twosome proceeds gleefully with their heartless scheme until true love unexpectedly alters the course of events. Look for a great bathtub scene. The film was co-written artfully for the screen by Milos Forman and Jean-Claude Carriere and set like a gem in the visually emphatic Baroque period.

Editorial Reviews
"...VALMONT is gorgeous..."
Los Angeles Times - Sheila Benson (11/17/1989)

"There is plenty to admire here: the lavish evocation of 18th century aristocratic France, Forman's flair for set pieces, the satirical digs at sexual and social hypocrisy."
Sight and Sound - Geoffrey Macnab (06/01/2007)

      A Fun Period Romp
    Review created: 07/05/06
    6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

    I really preferred the crueller, wickeder, more dramatic "Dangerous Liaisons" with John Malkovich, but that didn't stop me from thoroughly enjoying Milos Forman's "Valmont."

    Colin Firth is as handsome as always, playing the mischievous, playful Valmont. Annette Bening is lovely, but her plotting and manipulations weren't quite as fun to watch as Glenn Close's.

    Fairuza Balk is adorable and it made me uncomfortable, since she looked so much younger than Uma Thurman's Cecile, watching Valmont seduce her. It seemed way more like nonconsensual relations to me.

    Meg Tilly was luminous as Madame de Tourvel. Her sister can't hold a candle to her.

    Good old Henry Thomas of "E.T." fame is adorable as the clumsy music tutor Danceny. It's enjoyable to watch the budding romance between him and Fairuza's Cecile.

    This more lighthearted version is fun to watch. The sets and costumes are fabulous but a bit restrained. You get to see Colin Firth in a period style bathtub, ooh.

    This is definitely a chick flick so don't try to inflict it on your husbands or boyfriends!

      Pride & Prejudice Fans Will Love This Period Film!

    There are two versions of this film out there, one with John Malkovich as "Valmont," and this one, with Colin Firth as "Valmont." Although it is difficult to envision Firth as the bad guy, he does so brilliantly in this film. Set in 17th Century England on grand estates. Costumes are wonderful. Well-acted and well-directed. For all Jane Austen fans, this film should be in your collection!
