Le Bossu
Daniel Auteuil, Jean Reno, Gerard Depardieu. Where are the barrel-chested Brit equivalents to these beefy action men of the French cinema? But then, Brits are all gay, aren’t we? Take this fine, roistering spectacle, a dashingly charming entertainment in which Auteuil plays a D’Artagnan-like figure, all flashing swords and teeth. The story has been made into a film five times before, and is in the tradition of the Count of Monte Cristo – revenge is its beating heart – as it follows 18th century swordsman the Chevalier de Lagardère (Auteuil) through long patient years, disguise as a hunchback, political intrigue, love from an unexpected quarter, until he finally faces down the dastardly Gonzague (played by the brilliant boulevardier Fabrice Luchini), to avenge the death of his friend years before.

Philippe de Broca’s swashbuckling saga of delayed revenge set between 1699 and 1716 provides plum roles for Daniel Auteuil and Fabrice Luchini as, respectively, the versatile hero and delectably hissable villain. This seventh screen adaptation of Paul Feval’s 1857 serialized novel brings to life literary action-adventure codes that are nowadays most often relegated to videogames and animated cartoons. Result is a refreshing bigscreen experience for the young at heart.
Handy with a sword and quick on the uptake, Lagardere (Auteuil), a former street urchin schooled in fencing and circus arts, goes from accepting money to kill the Duke of Nevers (Vincent Perez, in appealing form) to becoming his trusted friend and bodyguard. A dashing, multititled and impressively wealthy bachelor, Nevers has as heir his cousin, the dour and scheming Gonzague (Luchini).
But word comes from afar that Nevers is a father from a tryst with Blanche de Caylus (Claire Nebout). He resolves to marry the mother of his child and raise the heir he assumes must be a son. Seeing an expedient, if messy, shortcut to wealth, greedy Gonzague e
