Description
Starring Frank Finlay and Norman Rossington, Casanova tells the story of the Italian adventurer and libertine Giovanni Jacopo Casanova (Finlay), who lived from 1725 to 1798. In this six-part series, first screened in 1971, Potter attempted to find a contemporary relevance through the central themes of sex and religion.
Casanova was imprisoned in Venice in 1755, and Potter centres the drama around this event, inter-cutting to contrast Casanova's many colourful, romantic escapades with his oppressive solitary confinement in the gloomy prison cell.
