	Dangerous Liaisons - Valmont omni
		Because the story of Les Liaisons Dangereuses unfolds entirely via letters written among the characters with no omniscient author intervention, the novel offers great subjectivity of interpretation -- not only about who should be considered the protagonists and who the villains, but about the significance of events and even, in some cases, what actually happened.
		Hampton's play Les Liaisons Dangereuses ends with the shadow of the guillotine falling across the stage, though in the moment, Merteuil plays chess and enjoys the return of her control.
		If the various versions of Les Liaisons Dangereuses offer any clear any message, it is that what people do influences their reputations less than what they say and what is said about them by others.

		Les Liaisons Dangereuses is a complex and disturbing portrayal of the noble class in pre-revolutionary France.

		Twenty-nine years before British director Stephen Frears's recent wig-and-powdered "Dangerous Liaisons," with Glenn Close, John Malkovich and Michelle Pfeiffer, there was "Les Liaisons Dangereuses," a rompy French version directed by Roger Vadim, who was just over a dangerous liaison himself with Brigitte Bardot.
		Picture then-young vixen Moreau parading around in an ocelot fur coat and married to fellow sexual hunter Gerard Philipe (imagine "Hawaii Five-0's" Jack Lord imitating "The Thin Man's" William Powell imitating Maurice Chevalier); the two swinger-vampires are constantly sniffing the city lovescape for fresh blood.

		How lucky we are in Tokyo, to be graced with the world premiere of "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" by one of the leading dancers of our time, the former Royal Ballet principal, Adam Cooper.
		"Les Liasions Dangereuses" is based on the novel by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos (1741-1803) that was, due to its satirical swipe at aristocratic society, actually banned when it was first published.
		It is a great privilege for Japan to host the world premiere of such a tour de force of avant-garde European aesthetics, a privilege, Cooper said, that he bestowed to recognize the loyalty of his supporters in a country he feels is a kind of second home.

		Les Liaisons Dangereuses is one of my favourite novels (I once had to write an essay on "Terrorism and the Novel" and compared the de Laclos to Forsythe's "Day of the Jackal"!) I am not that keen on the film (U.S.), but am very much looking forward to seeing the ballet.

		He was familiar with aristocratic society but never fully part of it: he watched from the margins, observing the decadent excesses, power struggles, extreme narcissism and the stultifying hierarchies of an ancien regime that was soon to be swept away in the revolution.

		Les Liaisons dangereuses, Choderlos de Laclos's epistolary novel of 18th-century manners, has become a self-perpetuating industry.
		In this simple but spectacular setting the aristocratic characters weave their web of liaisons and revenge.
		Obedient to strict etiquette in public, they form graceful Watteauesque social clusters; unbridled by their desires in private, they move with the brutal disorder of primitives.

	DVD Times - Les Liaisons Dangereuses
		The subject matter of Les Liaisons Dangereuses is timeless - it’s entirely about the complex machinery of human emotions, human relationships and human sexuality.
		The script has none of the beautiful poetic concision of Christopher Hampton’s adaptation, Dangerous Liaisons — it is much too long-drawn out and loses the orgiastic hothouse quality of Frears' intense direction.
		Deneuve and Everett’s verbal sparring works surprisingly well, but in Les Liaisons Dangereuses, a lot more depends on the chemistry between Valmont and Mme Tourvel, and it is here unfortunately where the TV version fails — the plot devices and the direction lacking the subtlety and plausibility that should bring us to a convincing denouement.

		The central subject of Les liaisons is the battle for supremacy between the veiled libertine Mme de Merteuil and her accomplice and rival, the roué Vicomte de Valmont.
		There is nothing in Les liaisons that resembles the genuinely modern negotiations of desire that we find in Jane Austen.
		But what is special about Tourvel is not the self-consciousness of the future but that of the past; she resembles less Austen’s Elizabeth Bennett than the heroine of the 1669 novel Les lettres portugaises (written, incidentally, by a man), a nun who writes unanswered letters to her seducer.
