About Playing 'In the Company of Men'
A troupe of actors rehearse a play. In the play-within-the-film, an ambitious son and his distant father fight for control of an armaments firm and are pushed to eventual destruction by dangerous outside forces and traitorous aides.
Directed by Arnaud Desplechin, Playing 'In the Company of Men' leans on a strong ensemble — Sami Bouajila, Jean-Paul Roussillon, Wladimir Yordanoff — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2003.

The play is shown act by act with the briefest of breaks to move props or for refreshments. The lack of costumes, real props and scenery is soon forgotten.
