Beaumarchais, Pierre From New World Encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Previous (Pierre Bayle) Next (Pierre Berton) Beaumarchais Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais (January 24, 1732 – May 18, 1799) was a watch-maker, inventor, musician, politician, invalid, fugitive, spy, publisher, arms-dealer, and revolutionary (both French and American). He was best known, however, for his dramatic works, especially the three Figaro plays. The Marriage of Figaro served as the basis for the great opera of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart . His life and works reflect the tumultuous period in which he lived, including the period to and through the first phase of the French Revolution . His Figaro cycle covers the breakdown of the old, Medieval world and the birth pangs of the new, democratic world. Contents Humble beginnings Business, politics, arts, and entertainment Court battles and the American Revolution The Voltaire publisher ... Credits Humble beginnings Beaumarchais was born "Pierre-Augustin Caron," the only boy among the six children of a watchmaker. The family was comfortable and Caron had a peaceful and happy childhood—in contrast to his adult life. Caron left school at age 13 to apprentice under his father. A few years later, possibly between 1751 to 1753, he invented an escape mechanism that made possible a substantial improvement in the accuracy and compactness of watches. One of his greatest feats was a watch mounted on a ring, made for Madame de Pompadour, a mistress of Louis XV. The invention was later recognized by the French

Beaumarchais, The Scoundrel A Film Review by James Berardinelli France, 1997 U.S. Release Date: 11/97 (limited) Running Length: MPAA Classification: No MPAA Rating (Nudity, sex) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: Cast: Fabrice Luchini, Manuel Blanc, Sandrine Kiberlain Director: Edouard Molinaro Producers: Charles Gassot Screenplay: Edouard Molinaro and Jean-Claude Brisville Cinematography: Michael Epp Music: Jean-Claude Petit U.S. Distributor: New Yorker Films In French with subtitles While it would be unfair to pigeonhole the entire French film industry with one sweeping statement, it is true that when the American public thinks of a French film, something like Beaumarchais, The Scoundrel frequently comes to mind. An impeccably-acted costume drama, this film transports us back in time more than two centuries to a France where growing social unrest is soon to doom the Bourbon monarchy. The movie essays approximately ten years in the life of playwright Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais (Fabrice Luchini), the celebrated author of "The Barber of Seville" and "The Marriage of Figaro". The film is, by turns, an adventure, a dissection of the creative process, and a social commentary. Through it all, one thing remains constant: the script, by director Edouard Molinaro and Jean-Claude Brisville, refuses to relinquish its grasp on a tongue-in-cheek approach. Molinaro is no stranger to films with a humorous edge – his La Cage aux Folles took a serious theme and cleverly concealed it in a screenplay that was rich in comedy.
