La Reine Margot (film): Difference between revisions

'''''La Reine Margot''''' is a [[The Film of the Book|film adaptation]] of [[La Reine Margot|the novel of the same name]] by [[Alexandre Dumas]], père. Released in 1994, the film stars Isabelle Adjani as Margot, Vincent Perez as her lover La Môle, and Daniel Auteuil as Henri de Bourbon, the king of Navarre. Originally clocking in at roughly 160 minutes, the film was cut by twenty or so minutes [[Importation Expansion|for its international release]] because of disappointing performance at the box-office in France and criticism that the film was too violent and incoherent. In addition to cuts, changes included a scene of Margot and La Môle wrapped in a red cloth for the American release.
