Synopsis

In ever generation, there comes along a person so scandalous, so rebellious, so willing to break taboos that they topple the world's ideas of what being a free spirit truly means. In the 17th century that person was John Wilmot, AKA the 2nd Earl of Rochester - the wily and talented rogue who lived his short, wild life like a Restoration rock star and become known all at once as a troublemaker, a genius and one of history's most irrepressible believers in liberty.Now, in Laurence Dunmore's The Libertine, two-time Academy Award nominee Johnny Depp brings fourth the sexy, irreverent and ultimately moving adventures of a man who broke all the rules at a time when the rules of modern society were first being written. With a gritty and raw realism, the film brings to life the swinging times of 60s London - 1660's London, that is.
