Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Lewis Stone played the 'heavy' - the Marquis de la Tour d'Azyr - in the 1923 version of this film. He came back to play the older character of "Georges de Valmorin" in this version. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Early in the film, Andre criticizes Phillippe's letter on its grammar, citing a split infinitive. Andre then tells Philippe to "boldly go outside", thus committing a split infinite himself. more
Quotes:
Doutreval of Dijon: Think of this. A sword is like a bird. If you clutch it too tightly, you choke it - too lightly and it flies away. more

Wonderful whirl of an adventure!, 6 May 2002
10/10
Author: gofan1 from Washington, USA

This is one of my favorite movies ever! A wonderful period piece, with a light hearted love story line. Granger, of course, is in his element acting these types of roles. The story line is set in France during the pre-revolutionary and revolutionary times. Granger is a B*****d in search of his family, and mistakenly believes he is from a certain family.... this and a friendship with a revolutionary writer, give him a fun run for his money! You have to see it at least once.... it is SO good!
