Product Details:David Tennant and the legendary Peter O’Toole lead a stellar cast in the title role of this lavish, fast paced and edgy classic. The drama alternates between the gripping love triangle involving the young Casanova, Henriette and her husband Grimani, and the swan song of the world’s greatest lothario. Casanova takes us from the decadent streets of the 18th Century Venice to the salons of pre-revolution Paris, and on to the London courts of George III, until a trip to Naples finally breaks Casanova’s heart. Sex is Casanova’s lifeblood and his life is dedicated to pleasure. But one thing eludes him throughout his life – perfect happiness with his one true love – Henriette. 44 years later and exiled from Venice, Casanova is dying. Into his life comes Edith, a young parlour maid. Through Edith, he learns to love the old Casanova again and sends out messengers in search of Henriette. It is one last, desperate attempt to see the woman he loves before he dies . . .
