Used book – Don Juan, Jean-Marie Laclavetine

"Don Juan is a giant wounded from the start; he has exhausted his life, burned his last bridges, like Malcolm Lowry's hero in Under the Volcano. Don Juan is that consul who, in a matter of days, hours, goes to his inescapable rendezvous with death. The ending remains open, and it is very important that it does. I don't know of any Molière play, for that matter, that doesn't have an open and ambiguous ending. Molière blends tragedy and comedy, which is the very essence of comedy. But above all, I believe this film is very close to the type of tales and legends. There is something legendary in the narrative, a legend put on film, and also a meditative wandering." Jacques Weber.
