The Three Musketeers 2023 French Version Trailer

[Cat]

I'm rather partial to the 1953 French version with comedy legend Bourvil as the valet Planchet and Georges Marchal channeling Errol Flynn as d'Artagnan.

I'll have to check that one out!
 
Of course, every role that Flynn did, he was merely copying Douglas Fairbanks' performance (but still quite entertaining).  Just checked, and Fairbanks' Three Musketeers was just restored and with original colour process scenes last year.  Will have to add that to my Fairbanks vid library!

Trailer for the new French version of The Three Musketeers



From the trailer it looks more impressive than the recent English language versions.

I don't know if you've seen but the movie will goes in two part:
D'Artagnan for spring 2023
and Mi Lady for fall 2023

Nick: "Looks interesting, but can any version ever match the Richard Lester films?"

Probably not.  But this one does look promising

I watched about 30 min and I had to turn it off. What a disappointment. Probably the worst adaptation of the three musketeers and I include the (new) BBC series in the count. Everybody looks like they escaped from Deadwood’s set, rolled themselves in mud and then came over to shoot this film.
The costume designer should be shot, resurrected and shot again.

Saw it at the oldest purpose built cinema in the UK. https://electricpalace.com/
Thoroughly enjoyed it.

[Emir of Askaristan]

Saw it when I came out and, although the costumes were not the best and there was a layer of muck on certain characters I thought it was really good. Best adaptation I've seen for a long time.

The standard laments of ahistorical costuming aside, I still really, really want to see this.

I still have no idea how to do so here in the States, legally.

Any ideas?
