"Moliere" is Reinvented - Starts Friday!

HOLLYWOOD -- Anyone looking for a cradle-to-grave biographical drama of seminal French playwright and actor Jean-Baptiste Poquelin may want to avoid "Moliere," which opens Friday.
Biographers of Moliere, the name Poquelin adopted as his nom de plume, frequently have discussed mysterious absences during his early years as an actor and playwright. One such time was in 1644. Moliere wasn't even 22, but he already was starring in and producing his own plays.
