Scenes: Brilliant indoor and outdoor scenes and amazing cinematography. On a second viewing of the film: Co-written by Andrew Davies!?!?! How did I miss that? That actually explains a lot, haha! There are several witty remarks and funny scenes though. The language used is very modern and references are made to quotes and ideas that are not particularly historically accurate.

During the fight D'Artagnan meets Constance, a pretty young lady-in-waiting to the Queen but although he is instantly enchanted she is not impressed by his clumsy country ways.
