Desc: Les tentations de La Fontaine: Directed by Pierre Viallet. With Rita Cadillac, Roger Carel, Maurice Chevit, Jacqueline Corot. The portrait of the fabulist, as brushed by Giraudoux and adapted by Paul Guth reveals the contradictions and ambivalence of the famous Jean de la Fontaine, a man tempted by bourgeois life, by women, by the King's court, by skepticism and by religion alike. So much so that he forgets his father, his wife, his home, doesn't recognize his own son when he is presented to him in a salon, deceives his best friends, and yet he undoubtedly is the poet of love, friendship and fidelity.
