L'Histoire de Manon Trailers

Manon, a winsome girl with dangerously innocent allure, gives in to the temptation of wealth and becomes calculating and corrupt. For her brother Lescaut she is a bargaining chip, for old Monsieur G. M. she is an object of desire, for the student Des Grieux she is pure and simple love. MacMillan’s exhilarating and engaging ballet gives new life to the character created by Prévost and popularized through opera, delineating the allure and tragedy of the protagonist and crafting splendid male roles. Fifty years after its debut, it has lost none of its dramatic and theatrical power.

Reviews
RyothChatty ridiculous rating
Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
