Movie Reviews of The Scarlet Pimpernel Boxed Set
Movie Review: Love this version and casting of this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
A&E did taek some liberties with the book but only for the better!! The casting was more believable and realisitic compared to the Jane Seymour farce version. I had seen the A&E version originally on TV and was thrilled to obtain the set for my own personal viewing. I have watched it repeatedly!!! BRAVO!!
Summary of The Scarlet Pimpernel Boxed Set
It is the height of the french revolution and sir percy blakeney has a secret. By day he is just another foppish british aristocrat. By night he becomes the legendary scarlet pimpernel a caped crusader for the 18th century. With sparkling wit and brilliant discuises he forms a secret league of followers. Studio: A&e Home Video Release Date: 05/30/2000 Starring: Richard E. Grant Run time: 300 minutes Rating: NrScarlet Pimpernel Book 3: Kidnapped King returns the series to the swashbuckling adventure of the first film. The dauphin has been kidnapped and both the Pimpernel and the Republicans are on his trail. Marguerite (Elizabeth McGovern) returns to France for a little undercover skullduggery while Percy (Richard E.?Grant) travels to Paris and reunites his network of spies and secret agents. Grant plays the effete but snide Percy for all he's worth, a flamboyant snob with a tart tongue, while McGovern's Marguerite is the wayward daughter of the revolution come home for the cause. They're both covers, of course, but the play-acting becomes public theater when they hiss and spit a public breakup in front of the Republican government and Percy skulks out looking every inch the spineless fop. Free of suspicion from all but the cagey Republican agent Chauvelin (Martin Shaw), the Scarlet Pimpernel again rises to save the oppressed, shadow the suspicious, and track down the hiding place of the dauphin's captors. The plot of secret identities and murky alliances climaxes (in the best swashbuckling tradition) with crossed swords but concludes with a sneaky new conspiracy that opens the door for even more sequels. Suzanne Bertish guest stars as the theater star with a secret La Tourain. --Sean Axmaker
