Marquis de Sade
Marquis de Sade was born on Jun 02, 1740 in France. Marquis de Sade's big-screen debut came with Le vice et la vertu directed by Roger Vadim in 1963. Marquis de Sade is known for Lunacy directed by Jan Svankmajer, Jan Tríska stars as Marquis and Pavel Liska as Jean Berlot. The upcoming new movie Marquis de Sade plays is Erotic Symphony which will be released on Jan 01, 2018.
Born a rich nobleman, Marquis being his title rather than his birth name, De Sade gradually became a decadent libertine among the French society of Louis XVI. A liberally educated iconoclast, he wrote prose and verse, and specialized in testing the limits of decency, breaking tabboos and shocking the aristocracy, often with sordid details drawn from real life. He was thought to have committed much of the perversions and debauchery he had written about. He was incarcerated in an asylum shortly before the French Revolution. After a decade of feverish creativity, he willingly gave up writing and lived his remaining years in uneventful calm. De Sade has been portrayed in movie and TV by Daniel Auteuil, Stuart Devenie, Keir Dullea, Robert Englund, Klaus Kinski, Patrick Magee, Nick Mancuso, Geoffrey Rush, Brother Theodore, and Conrad Veidt.
