Casanova
卡萨诺瓦(大卫·田纳特 David Tennant 饰)是当地出了名的花花公子,没有一个女人能够抵挡得了他含情脉脉的注视,全都拜倒在他的脚下。随着时间的推移,卡萨诺瓦的风流触怒了宗教局,他遭到了逮捕和审判,险些被判处绞刑。幸运的是,卡萨诺瓦得到了朋友的救助,但同时,他也被下达了最后通牒,如果不能够找到一个正派女子与之结婚,那么卡萨诺瓦将被永远的从威尼斯驱逐。 一次偶然中,卡萨诺瓦邂逅了名叫弗朗西斯卡(罗丝·伯恩 Rose Byrne 饰)的女子。和卡萨诺瓦所认识的大部分女人不同,弗朗西斯卡饱读诗书聪慧狡黠,个性自由奔放,这一点倒挺像卡萨诺瓦的。弗朗西斯卡所散发出的致命魅力很快就俘获了卡萨诺瓦的心。

Castle Dux, Bohemia, 1798. Casanova, now a penniless librarian in his seventies, begins to tell his life story to Edith, a young kitchen maid in the castle he works in. We return to Casanova's childhood and humble beginnings as the son of an actor in Venice. As a young man he studies for the priesthood, but is expelled from his seminary, then meets and falls in love with Henriette... but the Duke of Grimani wants Henriette for himself.

Casanova, living on his wits and as a mystic, does a good deed and comes into a fortune. Bragadin offers to adopt him and Henriette agrees to marry him. Grimani, enraged, has Casanova arrested and charged with witchcraft, but he escapes from prison and flees Venice - taking with him Jack, his young illegitimate son by a previous liaison, and Rocco, his servant. Casanova heads for Paris, as he knows that Venetian ambassadors abroad are able to grant pardons.

In the past, we follow Casanova's adventures in London - where he glimpses Henriette and tricks his way into court circles - and in Naples, where he meets an old friend. Still living on his wits, Casanova makes and loses fortunes and also enjoys other conquests. Back in the present, Edith realizes that Casanova may be wrong in believing Henriette is dead. But Casanova himself is now very sick and getting near his end.
