Pathé’s elegantly-acted, French-language romp, a not-so-faithful adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ 1844 novel is – quite literally – not the whole story. Part Two, which has already been shot, will be released later in the year.
In case you haven’t read the book – or seen any of the many other films already inspired by it – Porthos, Aramis (Romain Duris) and Athos (Vincent Cassel) are the titular swashbuckling musketeers. And the trio, with the help of whippersnapper and wannabe musketeer D’Artagnan (François Civil), do their best to protect King Louis XIII (Louis Garrel).
