* DescendedCreator:[[invoked]] The 1980 screen adaptation of ''L'Avare'' by Creator/LouisDeFunes was the only movie directed by him, where he also starred as Harpagon. It was a long-time, pet project of his, since the role was very much [[{{Typecasting}} tailor-made for him]].



* ShoutOut: When Harpagon (Louis de Funès) is discussing feeding the horses with Maître Jacques (Creator/MichelGalabru), they are not figured by real horses but by a life-sized drawing from Creator/AlbertUderzo, as if coming straight out of ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}''. Marianne's alleged sketches of Neptune, Priam and Anchises are also drawn in Uderzo's style.

* {{Loanshark}}: Cléante has to resort to these to help Mariane's mother, before discovering the financer he would be speaking to was Harpagon, who used strawmen like Master Simon to loan money to rate around 25%. As said Cléante, "The deuce! What a Jew! what a Turk we have here! That is more than twenty-five per cent."
** To tell you how exploitative Harpagon's usury was, around one fourth of the loaned capital was in form of overvaluated rubbish furnitures and tapestry.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The Creator/LouisDeFunes movie adaptation introduces Harpagon with a scene where he is attending mass. Once the church servant starts collecting money, he initially pretends to not have noticed the person, then he flees the church without donating any coin.
