Join Oscar and Diggory as they discuss Hugh Grant's fascinating portrayal of Polish composer and pianist Frédéric Chopin in Impromptu (Lapine, 1991).
Set in 1830s France, Impromptu follows George Sand (played by Judy Davis), who is known as an eccentric maneater, traversing the world without a care for societal norms and leaving a trail of adoring men in her wake. However, when she meets pianist and composer Frédéric Chopin (played by Hugh Grant), George Sand is overcome. Chopin must be hers.
