"Delightfully entertaining comedy with top-notch script and cast." -Blockbuster Entertainment Guide

"Spirited, playful and outrageous" (The New York Times), this captivating romantic comedy celebrates brazen, controversial 19th-Century feminist author George Sand and the unlikely object of her desire: well-mannered composer Frederic Chopin. Boasting an impressive cast including Judy Davis (Life Without Judy Garland), Hugh Grant (Notting Hill) and Emma Thompson (Sense and Sensibility), Impromptu) is "delightful, lively and saucy" (New York Daily News)!

Bohemian provocateur Sand (Davis) is setting Paris ablaze by wearing men's clothing and taking a long line of lovers! But when she first hears the heavenly music of Chopin (Grant), she vows to stop at nothing - including transforming herself - to capture the heart of the fragile, shy and painfully straight-laced musician! Will this lovesong ultimately crescendo… or will it become one of history's greatest unfinished symphonies?
