Subject: 	Ariane Mnouchkine Moliere on DVD

The Ariane Mnouchkine made for TV film Moliere (1978) came out on DVD in 
2004. It is available on amazon.fr for around 38.00 U.S. dollars 
(including shipping). The DVD contains two discs and the made for TV 
film is in French and has an English subtitles option. The image 
transfer is excellent. There is a small booklet (in French only) about 
the made for TV film as well as a 46 minute interview with Ariane 
Mnouchkine.

A more recent French film entitled Moliere (2007) directed by Laurent 
Tirard is supposed to open in the U.S. in July. It has been compared by 
reviewers to Shakespeare in Love.
