      Audience Member If ever you like light french comedies. This evolves around Diderot's secret works to print the Encyclopedia. If Michel Serrault was a tremendous actor, he cannot really save this movie, that is altogether flat and mediocre. Unless you are a girl (or a boy) who finds Vincent Perez beautiful. Well, he's full frontal naked in half his scenes... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member I expected smarter comedy and more about philosophy...great cast, simply plot and a lot of sexuality to make up for the poor scripting. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Diderot, d'Alembert et la fabrication de la fameuse Encylopedie vue sous un angle licencieux et irreverencieux. Excellente comedie historique, qui livrera de nombreux fous de rire, grace a une poignee d'acteurs exceptionnels. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member J'avais déjà un faible pour Diderot et d'Alembert... il (le faible) s'est transformé en torride passion... Provocateur hors du temps ! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent! Je veux un orgue à cochons moi aussi! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the funniest films I've seen. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
