Plot Summary
"All for one and one for all!" as Gene Kelly leads the celebrated French swashbuckling trio against the evil Cardinal Richelieu in this adventure-filled classic. Academy Award-winning picture stars Oscar-winner Kelly ("Singin' in the Rain," "An American in Paris") as the high-spirited D'Artagnan, Oscar-nominee Lana Turner ("Peyton Place") as Countess de Winter, Oscar-nominee Angela Lansbury (TV's "Murder, She Wrote," "Gaslight") as Queen Anne, Vincent Price ("The Fly," "The House of Wax") as the evil Richelieu, Oscar-winner Van Heflin ("Shane"), Frank Morgan ("The Wizard of Oz"), and June Allyson ("Little Women"). Produced by Academy Award-recipient Pandro S. Berman ("Ivanhoe," "Top Hat," "Father of the Bride") this adaptation of the classic French tale remains one of the best.
Customer Reviews
Three Musketeers - 1948 version
It's a good old-fashioned swashbuckler with all kinds of impossible fight scenes. Of necessity, it is a shortened and altered version of Dumas' book. Fun to see all these well-known actors in their younger days. But the most annoying thing was the voice synchronization. Van Heflin's, Vincent Price's, Gene Kelley's and others' voices were not in synch with their facial movements. Did something happen in the digitizing?
I do wish iTunes would make some French versions available with the option of turning off subtitles. In fact, I wish iTunes had more foreign films available, period.
THE BEST
This is the best 3 Musketeers movie ever made. Yes it is old but all of the Fight scenes are real. All of the action is real. I LOVE good CGI, but this is just wonderful without it. The most important thing in any movie is the script, the direction and acting. These were all perfection in this movie. The acting...THE BEST. The sets, wardrobe and locations...wonderful. What a fun movie with a script and acting that real makes you believe!!! I was in the movie biz for 20 year. I know. See it!
