"Quills" is a Biography - Drama movie in which we watch the life story of Marquis De Sade when he was inmate on an insane asylum. A new doctor arrives in the asylum with the reputation of a tyrant, and changes the routine and withdraw all the privileges of Marquis De Sade.
I liked this movie very much because it was based on true events and more specifically on the life of Marquis De Sade a very important person. The direction which was made by Philip Kaufman, it was great and he presented very well both the life and also the work of Marquis De Sad, and how important he was. Regarding the interpretations of the cast, I have to mention Geoffrey Rush's who played as Marquis de Sade and he was simply amazing. I also believe that his interpretation on this movie can be compared to his other interpretation on the movie "Shine" of 1996. Some other interpretations that worth mentioning are Kate Winslet's who played as Madeleine, Joaquin Phoenix's who played as Coulmier and Michael Caine's who played as Royer-Collard. Lastly, I have to say that "Quills" is a nice movie that I highly recommend everyone to watch it in order to learn more and better understand the life and the influence of Marquis De Sade
