*Spoiler/plot- 1972, A story about keeping Napoleon on Elba island and under control from the British government view.
*Special Stars- John Gielgud, Ralph Richardson.
*Theme- Napoleon was a danger to European stability and safety.
*Trivia/location/goofs- Shot in Spain. "Boom microphone" makes an appearance in some of the indoor room shots at the top of the film frame. It has some seaside nudity and war violence.
*Emotion- A thoroughly enjoyable film with great writing, acting, casting and suspenseful plot. The intrigue and dialog is refreshing like a fascinating Sherlock Homes story. John Gielgud scenes are much too short and so leave you wanting to see more of his acting. Ralph Richardson carries the film well opposite the well-acted and capable Napoleon actor.
