Movie Reviews of Scaramouche

Movie Review: Fabulous Fun!
Summary: 5 Stars

Finally, it's out on DVD!
Eleanor Parker was never so beautiful as in this movie. A Technicolor Babe for sure! Janet Leigh ain't bad either. OH, and the guys are hot as well!
Witty dialogue, super costumes and oh, yeah, there's that sword fight!!
Despite a few continuity glitches, this movie is fun for all!! Highly recommended for older kids too. I think I was 12 when I first saw this movie!

Movie Review: Scaramouche
Summary: 5 Stars

If you like a cloak-and-dagger movie, this is the best. There are all the elements of a classical of that kind. colourful, adventurous, romantic. Stewart Granger is magnificent. Lots of exciting duels with swords. Stewart Granger is an acrobatic fencer and Mel Ferrer is equally agile and gifted. It's a pleasure to watch them. In effect there is in the movie the longest and best duel in the history of cinema.

Movie Review: Forget the swordplay--LOOK at it!
Summary: 5 Stars

Scaramouche has possibly the most beautiful Technicolor cinematography of any MGM film. It's just gorgeous! The film, of course, is a delight in the great Errol Flynn tradition, but with Janet Leigh and Eleanor Parker, it's primarily a feast for the eyes. Incidentally, this is the only film I know of that gives an accurate representation of commedia dell'arte, and the theatrical scenes are a delight.

Movie Review: CLASSIC RASCAL- ROGUE ADVENTURE
Summary: 5 Stars

More over CASSANOVA, DON JUAN, and make way for the man who "was born with the gift of laughter, and the sense that the world was mad", the irrepressable SCARAMOUCHE!
Fencing fans will love the best and longest dual to date and yes, they actually TOOK fencing lessons!..and talk about your O'HENRY endings.. YOU definitly will because THIS is a RARE and seldom televised JEWEL!

Movie Review: Oldie But Still Great
Summary: 5 Stars

I first watched this as a kid, and still remember the wonderful sword fighting. Other than the Star Wars Ep1 and Ep3 (especially Ep3) duels, this was perhaps the best sword duel filmed in history - and without the assistance of computerized special effects. Good story too. A must have for sword-fighing and classical buffs. Hard to find in the typical video store.
