Revealing mistakes: In the swordfight on the frozen river, the lumps of broken ice float high in the water like Styrofoam. Real ice would be 9/10 below the surface and water would slosh over the lumps as they were moved around. more
Quotes:
Cardinal Richelieu: [Richelieu realizes that D'Artagnan is in possession of the letter he wrote giving Milady de Winter permission to kill Buckingham, d'Artagnan and Constance; reading] "By my order and for the good of the state, the bearer has done what has been done." Hm. One should be careful what one writes
[he tears up the note]
Cardinal Richelieu: and to whom one gives it. I must bear that in mind.

Oliver Reed makes it a 10, 20 May 2000
10/10
Author: cdh-2 from Yuma, Arizona

Great movie--one of my favorites. What makes it a 10 is Oliver Reed's heartbreakingly good performance as Athos--particularly two scenes: first, when he tells D'Artagnan "a love story to cure you of love", then his confrontation with Milady DeWinter ("Since when has it been possible to insult YOU, Madame!"). Milady's seduction of Fenton, and the ensuing assassination are chilling. And the whole set piece of the Four at the siege is great comedy, well played by all. The only serious departure from the book is D'Artagnan's duel with Rochefort at the end (but it IS a thrilling swordfight, so I don't mind). I had the good fortune to see this film and Three Musketeers on a double bill back in 1976 (how many of us are old enough to remember double bills at the movies?) when I was 16. Now I've got to buy the videos and watch them together again. "All for one, and one for all!" I wonder: where is the nearest fencing instructor?
