玛奇丝

十七世纪的路易十四时代，在肮脏混乱小镇上的少女玛奇丝（苏菲•玛索 Sophie Marceau 饰）以一曲美丽的舞蹈打动了来此演出的莫里哀剧团，玛奇丝跟着剧团来到了巴黎，开始做起了绝世名伶的美梦。然而演员路并不像她想象的顺利，她大多时候只能出演木讷愚蠢的哑人，并且要靠出卖身体的代价来换取演出的机会。诗人拉辛（兰伯特•威尔逊 Lambert Wilson 饰）与宫廷贵族在看戏时看中了玛奇丝，她因此获得了去为路易十四国王表演的机会。并由此与拉辛相识，两人逐渐产生了感情。玛奇丝开始在剧团和拉辛之间徘徊不断，最终决定出演了拉辛的悲剧，并且大获成功，也获得了国王的青睐。而再次演出时她却抱病昏倒，代替她演出的侍女不但打破了她与拉辛之间关于剧目角色的约定，更让她怀疑自己的价值……Marquise is a drama about the rise and fall of a beauteous actress. As cheerfully portrayed by Sophie Marceau, the eponymous heroine is an engagingly ribald, but perhaps rather too modern, character. She rises from an impoverished background to become a favourite of the Sun King, Louis XIV, and the mistress of the celebrated Racine, who wrote roles especially for her; but her fate, in the end, is a tragic one.
