The Imaginary Invalid (1953x32)

:

Based on Moliere's play. Moliere's rollicking satire tells the story of a wealthy fop, Argan, who fancies himself the victim of dozens of ailments. He accordingly becomes the dupe of the absurd 17th Century doctors, who fill him with worthless medicine and extract valuable fees in return. Argan's saucy maid Toinette, realizing the ridiculous situation of her gullible master, devises a plan that makes him come to his senses. Stars Sarah Churchill.
