The Marriage of Figaro

Dec 25, 1961

Comedy in five acts by Beaumarchais, filmed by Marcel Bluwal in studio and on location.

At once "a comic baroque play, a bourgeois drama, a chansonnier's number, a social satire, a farce and a very pretty love story" according to Marcel Bluwal, it can also be summed up, according to Beaumarchais, as "the most bantering of intrigues".
