The Three Musketeers

Steve, also watch out for this:

La fille de d'Artagnan (with English subtitles)

I enjoyed this very very much. Good actors in best playing mood (starring wonderfully grumpy Philip Noiret and an irrestistably beautiful, hot-headed - and young - Sophie Marceau, but the whole cast is great as well), and a directing done with an easy hand: light, ironic, never taking the film, the story, the project really serious - Bertrand Tavernier is no unknown in Europe. Not even the villains can be taken serious and finally die with a wink.

A very good champaign of entertainment: light, charming and stimulating like the first mild breeze in Spring. Beside the two movies done by Richard Lester (Oliver Reed, Michael York, Richard Chamberlain) my favourite Musketeer-movie.

P.S. And the Cardinal, Mazarin in this case. That guy is a showact for himself.
