La fille de d'Artagnan aka Revenge of the Musketeers 1994, directed by Bertrand Tavernier, staring Sophie Marceau, Philippe Noiret (D'Artagnan), Claude Rich, Sami Frey (Aramis), Jean-Luc Bideau (Athos), Raoul Billerey (Porthos), Carlotte Kady, Nils Tavernier, Gigi Proietti, Jean-Paul Roussillon and others. French lighthearted swashbuckling adventure. France, 1654: D'Artagnan's girl grows up in a convent. When the mother superior is murdered, Eloïse suspects a plan to murder the king and hopes to prevent this and revenge the murder by finding her father and the 3 musketeers. I've seen many Musketeers over the years, but I think this was the first time I've heard them speak French. The Musketeers are a bit older, but still willing to defend the King "One for all, all for one"-style. Sophie Marceau is absolutly lovely as D'Artagnan's daughter, fiesty and never listens to her fathers warnings and advices. Lighthearted and sometimes very French in thet they speak a bit too much, especially as I've got to read the subtitles and tries to catch up with what's going on in the pictures. Still it is entertaining seeing the famous literary characters portrayed this way instead of the way they are portrayed in Hollywood versions, though Lester's version comes to mind as closer to this movie. Not perfect, but well worth a look. Warning: Containes a few scenes with female nudity.
