Dummerweise zeigen sich die Kinder reichlich unwillig, denn Elise ist in Valère, einen Angestellten ihres Vaters, verliebt und Cléante hat selbst ein Auge auf Marianne geworfen. Als Harpagon Marianne zu einem Essen ins Haus lädt, gestehen sich die beiden jungen Verliebten ihre Gefühle. Harpagon gerät außer sich.
Louis de Funès brilliert in einer ihm auf den Leib geschneiderten Verfilmung von Molières "Der Geizige".
Based on Molière's play. The children of Harpagon, Cléante and his sister Elise, are each in love but they still haven't spoken to their father yet. Harpagon is a miser who wants to choose the right man and the right woman for his children. When Cléante, at last, tries to speak to Harpagon, the old man informs the family that he wants to marry Marianne, the young girl loved by Cléante. Unaware of his son's sorrow, Harpagon doesn't understand why Cléante has become so angry with him.
