    • Quotes

      Danielle: [indicating Maurice] I wish to address the issue of this gentleman. He is my servant, and I am here to pay the debt against him.

      Cargomaster: You're too late, he's bought and paid for.

      Danielle: I can pay you twenty gold francs.

      Cargomaster: Madame, you can have me for twenty gold francs. Now drive on!

      Danielle: I demand you release him at once, or I shall take this matter to the King!

      Cargomaster: The King's the one who sold him. He's now the property of Cartier.

      Danielle: He is not property at *all*, you ill-mannered tub of guts! Do you honestly think it right to chain people like chattel? I demand you release him at once!

      Cargomaster: [shouts] Get outta my way!

      Henry: [riding up] You dare raise your voice to a lady, sir?

      Cargomaster: [flustered] Your Highness! F-forgive me, Sire. I meant no disrespect. It's just, uh... I'm following orders here. It's my job to take these criminals and thieves to the coast.

      Danielle: A servant is not a thief, your Highness, and those who are cannot help themselves.

      Henry: Really! Well then by all means, enlighten us.

      Danielle: If you suffer your people to be ill-educated, and their manners corrupted from infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded, sire, but that you first make thieves and then punish them?

      [pause, the other courtiers look on approvingly]

      Henry: Well, there you have it. Release him.

      Cargomaster: But Sire...!

      Henry: I said, release him!

      Cargomaster: Yes, Sire.

      [Maurice is released]

      Maurice: [to Danielle] I thought I was looking at your mother!

      Danielle: [sotto voce] Meet me at the bridge.

      [aloud]

      Danielle: Prepare the horses, we will leave at once.

      [to Henry]

      Danielle: I thank you, your Highness.

    Really enjoyed this -even 20 years later!
    Well-written, well-acted. Beautiful location/ scenery. Musical score is outstanding - perfect period/era fit & exquisite performances. A worthwhile and entertaining movie. Drew B, Angelica H. and cast including some soon-to-be-famous colleagues never seem trite or campy, but very authentic. Comic moments & surprising twists on the traditional Cinderella story make this a gem.
