Les Miserables (1998, PG-13)
Incredible, incredible end. |
|
| 2 |
Cyrano De Bergerac (1990, PG)
The verses of Edmon Rostand are incredible. Not just a love story (as many people, including myself, believed), but the story of a man who follows his way of life in spite of all troubles that it implies. It is not broadly known that Cyrano was a real person, and that lots of things that are told in the play about him are true (including some of his writings and ideas). |

The Three Musketeers (1993, PG)
Good songs (Sting) |

The Man in the Iron Mask (1998, PG-13)
What I liked about this film was 1) the excellent actors for musketeers, 2) the change in the relations among them: De Artagnan as an enemy, Porthos comic and suicide, Aramis adquiring a critic role that we never suspected in the most superficial of the four... |
