Trivia:
In the original novel Constance was the wife, not the goddaughter of D'Artagnan's landlord. By 1948 standards, a hero like D'Artagnan would never dally with a married woman. more
Goofs:
Continuity: Over the first hour of the movie, Countess de Winter's mole is below and to the left of her mouth. When Richelieu introduces her to D'Artagnan, her mole is below and to the right of her right eye. When she breaks a mirror several minutes later, she has no mole at all. She then gets dressed and meets D'Artagnan in her parlor without a mole. During their conversation, it reappears near her right eye. When they start wrestling, the mole is again missing. The mole appears, disappears and moves throughout the movie. more
Quotes:
D'Artagnan: I come from the end of the earth to implore you.
Constance Bonacieux: I thought you said you came from upstairs.

swashing their buckles ever since the movie moved, 23 August 2006
7/10
Author: leslie04 from United Kingdom

'The three musketeers' seems to have them swashing their buckles ever since the movie moved, but not even Douglas Fairbank's 1921 version had the lavishness of MGM's 1948 spectacle, or more acrobatic then Gene Kelly's d'Artagnan. Van Heflin, Lana Turner and Gig Young were accompanied by June Allyson, Reginald Owen, Vincent Price, Angela Landsbury and Frank Morgan and more in the lavish cast of George Sidney's.

Fair enough Gene Kelly falls in love with June Allyson after two seconds, the sword fighting does go a bit over the top (even though some bits of it were quite funny), but it was a very good film, guaranteed to put a smile on your face at some point. The goodies, Heflin, Kelly, Allyson, Owen and Young versus the baddies Vincent Price and Lana Turner, who's character is strangely called Lady De Winter the same name as in Hitchcock's 'Rebecca'.
