What an unexpected triumph of comedy! I haven't seen anything this entertaining since "Impromptu". Romain Duris (Moliere) ends up masquerading as a priest in the house of his patron while instructing him in the composition of a play to impress his hoped-for mistress. Duris has fantastic facial expressions which, along with the quirky plot, make for some riotous moments, usually with his bourgeois patron as the centre of the joke. My only complaint was that I had to use subtitles & missed out somewhat on the visual feast - quel dommage!
