Synopsis
Pendant une chasse à courre, André Chénier, secrétaire à l'ambassade de Londres et Madeleine de Coigny font connaissance. Après quelques remarques cinglantes de la jeune noble au poète roturier, c'est le grand amour. Le palefrenier Gérard, dont la famille sert les Coigny de père en fils est jaloux. Le père de la jeune fille, le comte de Coigny, très fier de sa noblesse s'oppose à leur amour. Dès les premiers mouvements révolutionnaires, Chénier revient à Paris. Gérard, acquis aux idées nouvelles, arrive trop tard pour empêcher le départ de ses anciens maîtres. Il se lance à leur poursuite.Actors
