SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Johnny Depp stars in "The Libertine" as the scandalously
decadent John Wilmot, the second Earl of Rochester. The film
follows the Earl's adventures in London, from his passionate
romance with a young actress, Elizabeth Barry (Samantha Morton),
to the writing of a scurrilous play which blisteringly and
bawdily lampoons the very monarch who commissioned it, Charles
II (John Malkovich), leading to the Earl's banishment and
eventual downfall.
Laurence Dunmore makes an assured directorial debut, creating
a period atmosphere that combines the dark debauched underbelly
of London with the allure and glamour of the Restoration court.
