  • A 2005 movie starring Heath Ledger, Charlie Cox, and Sienna Miller. Heath Ledger plays Giacomo Casanova, the mysterious nobleman whose sexual prowess is cutting a swath through 18th century Venice. After one too many run-ins with the law over charges of moral corruption, Casanova must be married to a local girl, Victoria (played by Natalie Dormer), herself well-known for having been kept pure and virginal. However, he soon finds himself enamored with Francesca Bruni (Miller), a feminist ahead of her time who is causing a stir among the Venetian community for her revolutionary views on gender relations (published under a man's name), as well as her vocal denouncement of Casanova. Casanova must go to great lengths to court her, not only proving his worth to a woman with little faith in men but also adopting a pseudonym so she doesn't find out about his reputation. Both Francesca and Casanova are targeted by Bishop Pucci (played by Jeremy Irons), an agent of the Catholic Church for the Inquisition, hunting down their alter egos with the intention of executing them. Despite the serious threats of death facing the two love interests, Hilarity Ensues. Supporting characters include Francesca's brother and mother (played by Charlie Cox and Lena Olin, respectively) and the merchant whose identity Casanova steals, to whom Francesca incidentally happens to be unwillingly engaged, played by Oliver Platt.
