A host of morally devoid characters fill out the cast of this 18th century drama. All the names of the characters in the movie are really long and French, so I’ll just use the actors’ names to describe the basic plot. So John Malkovich plays this guy who is the biggest womanizer ever. Glenn Close tells him that he can sleep with her if he successfully seduces her niece, played by Uma Thurman. Glenn Close wants to take revenge on the man Uma Thurman is supposed to marry, who used to be her lover. So John Malkovich does just that, and then he also manages to seduce Michelle Pfeiffer, only this time he falls in love with her. He goes back to Glenn Close to claim his prize for seducing Uma Thurman and some ridiculous drama happens. Will John Malkovich actually win the wager? Will Michelle Pfeiffer keep on loving him? Why has Glenn Close looked like she was 80 years old ever since she was in her late 30′s? Tune into this movie to find out… actually it’s pretty dramatic, but not very edifying, if you ask me.
