A partially true story about lies told, virtue lost and love found. For the first time in his life, the legendary Casanova (Ledger) is about to meet his match with an alluring Venetian beauty, Francesca (Miller), who does the one thing he never thought possible: refuse him. Through a series of clever disguises and scheming ruses, he manages to get ever closer to Francesca. But he is playing the most dangerous game he has ever encountered - one that will risk not only his life and reputation, but his only chance at true passion.... Directed with visual flair and wit by Lasse Hallstrom - a master of classy period pieces - the movie was filmed on location in Venice and the stunningly gorgeous scenery is almost a character in its own right. Heath Ledger, believable and engaging here in a role that turns on all of his considerable charms.
