Review of Casanova

Casanova (2005)
9/10
The story of Casanova-told by Peter O'Toole
23 July 2008
Giacomo Casanova (1725-1798) was a Venetian adventurer and author.In this British mini series we see the older Casanova telling his story to a young maid.He tells about his cool jailbreak but a big part of his stories contain sexual experiences with several women.There was something in this man women just couldn't resist.But there was only one woman he truly loved.Her name was Henriette.I saw Casanova (2005) in two parts.This is a modernized version of this 18th century adventurer.It works awfully good.David Tennant is absolutely fantastic as the protagonist.He's often comical, sometimes moving.It's a real treat to see Peter O'Toole as the older Casanova.He gives a touching performance as the elderly librarian.Other actors do also a good job.Laura Fraser plays Henriette, the number one girl in Casanova's life.Rosa Byrne is Edith, the maid.They're both pretty and talented.Shaun Parkes is very good as Rocco, Casanova's servant.I had good times watching the story of Casanova.So why don't you just tune in.
