The story revolves around two men in Victorian England, John "Jack" Worthing (Colin Firth) and Algernon "Algy" Moncrieff (Rupert Everett). Whenever Jack travels to London from his Hertfordshire estate, he says he is going to see his (fictitious) wayward brother, Ernest. Once in London, he keeps his privacy by calling himself Ernest. This tactic is especially important as his beloved, Gwendolen (Frances O'Connor), declares that she could love only a man named Ernest. Her cousin, Algy, is the one person who knows Jack's secret and one day he travels down to the estate, announcing himself to Jack's attractive ward, Cecily (Reese Witherspoon), as the infamous Ernest. Cecily is enamoured of him and his name, but upon Jack's return home and Gwendolen's unexpected arrival, it becomes clear there are both too many and too few Ernests., 2h42

The film closely follows the "American" version of Brecht's play Galileo. In 1609 Galileo is a mathematics professor in Padua, Italy. While his salary is inadequate, he possesses the freedom to pursue controversial scientific studies under the protection of the Venetian republic. Part of his work involves the use of a telescope, a relatively new scientific instrument brought from the Netherlands. Using the telescope, Galileo seeks to test the theories put forth by Nicolaus Copernicus that place the sun – and not the Earth – at the center of universe. As his research progress, Galileo accepts a more prestigious academic position in Florence, Italy. But his new position does not come with the government protection he enjoyed in Venice, and his friends in the higher echelons of the Roman Catholic Church refuse to come to his aid when he is summoned before the Inquisition., 2h26

Au lendemain de la fusillade du Champ-de-Mars du 17 juillet 1791, des bateleurs entreprennent de jouer les principaux événements des deux années qui viennent de s’écouler : de la réunion des États généraux à la proclamation de la loi martiale, en passant par la prise de la Bastille, la Grande Peur, et la nuit du 4 août. Dans une grande liesse populaire, ils tentent de montrer le détournement des espoirs, l’explosion de la joie puis l’effondrement du rêve d’égalité des droits. Pour ce faire, les bateleurs utilisent toutes les formes théâtrales, de la pantomime à la tragédie, des marionnettes à l’opéra-bouffe. Ils représentent ainsi les personnages importants ou humbles de cette année décisive et prennent à leur compte la phrase de Saint-Just : « La révolution doit s’arrêter à la perfection du bonheur.
