THE TRIUMPH OF THE MUSKETEER

These riders were fleeing far away across

the plain: They are not bandits.

At their head is the King
of France, Henry III.

Grandson of the glorious Francis I.

In fact, we are in the year 1588.

A decisive and dramatic
year for the Kingdom of France.

Under pressure from the Holy
League and the followers of Henri de

Guise, the King had no other
way to save his life,

than to flee from Paris
and dash to

Chartres, one of the cities
that had remained loyal to him.

But Chartres is not a
citadel and remains at the mercy

of a somewhat serious
helping hand.

- Let's go!

- Further down, in
the direction of the southwest, waits

Henry of Navarre,
the future Henry IV.

For the opportunity to decide the
situation in his favor.

By trickery or by force.

Here is Henry III, who is
seeking refuge in Chartres,

without money, without an army, without

credit and practically without a kingdom.

Luckily, he still has a mother.

One of the cleverest and most stubborn women,

that history has ever seen:

Catherine de' Medici.

Here is the King, my lady.

- "The King"?

For how long?

Until de Guise finds a madman
who will stab him?

Let it be. It is your fault.

Go away! Go away, I tell you!

This trip has exhausted you.

- It is very kind of
you to call it a trip.

Have we ever seen a
king run so fast?

- You retreated,
Sire. Others have done it before you.

- I did not retreat.

I ran away like a dog
that stands before a stick.

That does not matter. You are
still the King of France.

And that will remain so,
provided you negotiate.

- With Henri de Guise.

You do not negotiate with the devil, Madam.

- He is not the one I am thinking of.

It belongs to Henry of Navarre.

He is loyal.

- Loyal, but Huguenot, my mother.

If I were to listen to you, I would

lose the last loyal Catholics.

- Time is running out, Sire.

There are disturbing rumors
about your health.

But the Duke of
Guise could not wait...

Your death, to wear the crown.

He would not dare.

Leave us in peace!

The troops of the Duke of
Guise have surrounded Chartres.

Several regiments from all over the world

taking positions throughout the city.

- That is good.

- You only have time to ask

for help from Henry of Navarre.

- Against what? - Against your inheritance.

Promise him that he
will be the successor to the throne.

- Never.

- Always promise it, my
Lord. God will decide.

- Let's say I accept.

Find me a brave man,

who will deliver the message through De
Guise's army.

- I know many of them.

But I have only kept one.

- Who is this madman?
- A Gascon.

- "A Gascon?

" - He will do anything to bring the
Béarnais good news.

He is as brave as a tiger and
as cunning as a monkey, it seems.

- "It seems"? Do you not know him?

- No, Sire. But I know
his worst enemy.

The testimony of an enemy is

always better than that of a friend.

Should I have the messengers brought?
- Please, please.

Do it.

Thanks for everything, mother.

- Maurevert?

My dear, the hour has
come to prove your devotion.

- It is yours
for sure, you know that.

I have sworn that I will become the
enemy of the Duke of Guise.

- It is a matter of finding
Pardaillan and bringing him here.

- "Pardaillan." The cursed one?

The Duke has
chased me away. Because of him.

- I will fix it. Alive,
please. I will bring him dead or alive.

He is a spy of the Béarnais.

When I have interrogated him,
you can kill him.

- I will go to hell if it

must be, but I will bring him back to you.

- We are surrounded
by this cursed

Henri de Guise, who wants to kill
Henry of France.

Henri de Navarre, on the other hand,
wants the other two.

For me, three Henris,
that is two too many.

- I am for Henry of Navarre.

- Of course he is,
since Pardaillan is for him.

- What happens next? You
know how to talk to women.

- They always talk.

They are not the ones that
one would call like I do "loves-mouth".

- Before the Hundred Year's
War, that one called you that?

- Stop that.

Not before ten o'clock. Rather give
us something to eat

and tell Pardaillan
that I am waiting for him.

- "Pardaillan"? He did not come
home all night.

He has better things to do.

- He is crazy.
Hear that?

Pardaillan is not here.
- Then he is somewhere else.

- You damned idiot! Whether
Maurevert found him?

- Because he is currently burying Mr. de Maurevert.

Here it is! It is broad daylight.

- He is about to make a cuckold.
The grain dealer.

- Is that true?

- He has been with his wife,
since last night.

- They are playing hot hand?

- Where is the dealer?

- He is traveling,
like all the cuckolded ones.

- He is with the wife of the dealer!

- The grain dealer was traveling.

Just now.
Now he is back again.

- Why is he coming back today?
I think someone warned him.

That is the Mr. Grain dealer!

How nice that you are
back, Mr. Grain dealer!

Did you have a good trip,
Mr. Grain dealer?

- Let me go.
Why are you yelling so loud?

- Because I am deaf!

- Heavens, my husband!

- Oh, the King's riders.

And at their head, Mr. de
Maurevert! Mr. de Maurevert!

- These people are coming because of me.

You are the one who should
go. Is your aunt very sick?

- Why is that?

- Cuckolded and paid,
and that too.

You are on a
lucky streak. That is normal.

- The monster!

- My lady, hurry up.

- The monster. Being paid
for that.

I will take revenge!

- I already did, I believe.

You are laughing.

- Bring me the
man. The one who is up there.

If he resists, wound him. But
I am the one who has to finish him off.

- Let us let them in. We
will ambush them from behind.

- You will soon be
avenged. That I promise you.

- You?
- You?

- Are you already home?

I was at my aunt's.
She had a seizure.

I spent the night with her.

- Come on! Come on!

This way.

- My dishes!
My furniture!

You have had visitors,
as I can see.

- What a Pardaillan.
He keeps in shape.

- No! Not the marriage bed!

- The knight of Pardaillan
de Gascogne greets you.

- You are next.

- Come down.
I must speak with you.

- That is your aunt?
- And what is that?

- What are you doing in my house?

- I am doing the housework.
See for yourself.

- Come down,
I must talk to you.

- Come on up.
I beg you.

- Please go
down. It is important.

- I do not evade your orders.

I am waiting for you.

- I must take you to the King.

You are not surprised?
- "Surprised"?

You were under the command
of De Guise, and now the King?

Because de Guise chased you
away and you betrayed him?

Like master, like servant.

But I believe you.

- I forbid you to follow
Maurevert.

- You forbid me that?
- Yes, I do.

- That encourages me
to do it, on the contrary.

Ride, Maurevert.

- We are following him.

Do not let him see Maurevert.
Strike him down with your sword.

- I do not think I have to go to that trouble.

- Thank you, Pardaillan.

- Do not try to take her away from her again.
I

will throw you out the window if you do that.

For you it will be the third floor.

This time I forgive you.

Go away!
- Yes, yes, yes.

- Cuckolded, beaten.
- And soaked.

- Pardaillan, it has been

implied to me,

that you belong to the King of Navarre.

- I belong to no one.

- That is perfect.

There are people who please
me, and others who do not.

The question remains whether the Béarnais
pleases you so much,

that you risk something,
to do something for him.

- Your life for example.

- I am to deliver a contract to the Béarnais:
Alliance treaty against de Guise?

- How do you know that?

- King Henry can only
call for help.

- You are very smart.

Would you do that also to break the lines
of the Duke of Guise?

- If it had been easy,
you would not have needed me.

- Are you in agreement?

- Where is this letter?

- His Majesty will hand it to you,
personally handed over.

- It was a pleasure, this little game.

That was a nice campaign.

And the gentlemen of the League will be

letting you pass with hat in hand?

- I tell you again
that everything will go well.

- Yes.

Until the day someone
stabs you through with his sword.

- Let us find a quiet
place. I must talk to you.

- At your disposal anytime.

Please sit down.

- I have a way to
get you across the lines.

- What kind of way?

- I am very well
informed about your mission.

I have the order to facilitate the crossing,
so you can pass the line.

- Should we go now?
- Yes.

- Both alone?
- Yes. Why? Are you afraid?

- That would bring you too much joy.

I will allow myself
anyway to take my friends along.

If one of us is killed,

two will remain
to successfully complete the mission.

It is for the good of the King
that I take these precautions.

- Be smart
while there is still time.

I must get you out of Chartres.

When you return,
we will fight.

It is I who will kill you.

- The dyke, the dyke
Returning from Nantes

The dyke, the dyke
Returning from Nantes

From Nantes to Montaigu
The dyke, the dyke

From Nantes to Montaigu
The dyke, the dyke

- Catch them.

- Cruel folly, Pardaillan.
We are good here.

- Step aside.
Clear the way.

- You did not tell me anything.

If I had known. Stop!

- Be quiet.

- Let's go back to the shore quickly.
Let's go back!

- "Backwards"? That does not exist.

- You are a traitor, Maurevert.

I was certain that you
are a double agent.

I have the proof for it.
- That puts a spoke in your wheel.

You are very strong,
but you will perish.

- What do you think?

- You will not get far.

- And neither will you.

- I curse you.

I will find you. You
will not arrive.

- I will arrive at a good port anyway.

I would not want to
miss our appointment.

- If he is saved from the water.

- There is one horse missing.

The one who took it,
is planning the next ambush.

- With us, it is
more of a fun thing.

- Enough of the nonsense!

- You are right.

I am the only one who has been entrusted with this task.

I will continue it alone.
I thank you for it.

- I will defend it for you.

- This time it is
you who talks nonsense.

- You must stop him
from going alone.

But he is so stubborn.

Here.

- I brought you a
stick, to...

In case your sword....

- Would break.

- That is right, "break".

- Thank you, little cousin. Thank you.

- Yvan, ride off.

Pardaillan, you
do not ride alone.

- You are unstoppable.

- Pardaillan....

What is the matter with you?

- I remember a game
that is played in England.

It is called boxing,
something like that.

- I do not know what
that has to do with this.

- One must stretch the chin
and as far as possible.

- That is stupid.

- What do you get for it?
- Nothing.

- The English are stupid.

- Try it out.

- I?
- Yes.

Go on. He is very strong.

Ah, he is very strong.

- After you.
- But no.

- But yes, but
yes. Let's go.

Now it is your turn and
you try it. It is not bad.

Who will win? Who will
win? Who is faster?

Faster.

There, there, there.

One must never make fun
of the English.

Thanks to them I will continue alone.

And I hope that the people of
De Guise will entertain me.

- Do not come any closer. Go
away. Leave me in peace.

You have already taken everything from me.

- If that were the case,
I would remember it.

- Let me go.

- Come, calm
down. Do I look like a bandit?

- No, that I do not see.

Excuse me.
I thought it was you.

- "You"?
- The bandits.

They took everything from me:
My carriage, my jewelry.

- Not everything.

They left you your beautiful
eyes, to cry.

- Thank you, sir.

Would you please accompany me?

To the next inn?
- "The nearest inn"? I am in a bit of a hurry.

- You cannot just leave me
here! I am already scared to death.

Please, please, please. You are
good, I am sure of it.

- It is not only goodness
that makes me act.

- God willed it
that I should meet you.

Take me with you quickly,
knight. I am growing weak.

- Pardaillan does not leave a
lady alone on the road.

Come, Madame.

- I thank you, Chevalier.
You are my savior.

- Do not thank me, Madame.

Pray for me.
I am only a sinner.

- That would be too easy.

- My dear man,
you are fools.

Pardaillan has far too
many qualities for you.

He threw 30 riders into the river
as if he were drinking wine.

You must defeat him
through his flaws.

- If he is ready to indulge
in his inclinations.

- I would like to add.
- Here they are.

- Get off the
scene. Take your places.

And you too, innkeeper.

- Wait for me.

I have a friend who will lend me a dress,
provide a decent dress.

I would like to thank you.

- You can do it in this one.

- I only need a minute.

- Well, you took your time.

- Anyway, I did not lose it.

He is delightful.

- Yes, yes. I understand.

You wasted no time.

What a man, this Pardaillan!

- A jug of Loire wine, knight.

- That is because
I am in a bit of a hurry.

That does not matter. Wine and pie.

- Oats and water?

For the horse?
- In five minutes, or I will cut off your ears.

- If you feel like it, we have a seat free.

- One can do two
things at once.

- It is your turn, Sir. There is
a double 6 to beat.

- To bring me luck.

To hear is to obey.

Lucky in games and in
love. Life is beautiful.

- Pardaillan! Ouch!

- Here! It is night.

- Pardaillan!

- That is a stupid English
game. But I am the stronger one.

- Pardaillan has run away.
Quick, to the horses.

- After the beautiful weather came the
rain. Those were my last thalers.

Good evening.

- One moment, Mr. Knight.

You cannot just leave like that.

- With empty pockets? That
I have done a thousand times.

- Without paying your debts?
- My debts?

- Your meal
and that of your horse.

- But it is true.
What should I do?

- Luck is a woman, they say.

And I imagine that
you please women.

Try it once
more. You never know.

- Unfortunately, it is so,
I have nothing left to lose.

The gentlemen have scraped me clean.

- You only have left
your sword and your horse.

I am betting all that gold for them.

- Then it belongs to you?

- These gentlemen, you
have played for me.

Well, knight?

- The gold will not be enough.

- If I win,
you take off your mask.

I have bet 1000 thalers
on your beauty.

- With whom?
- With me.

I already owe myself money.

- It is a deal. You
have the honor, knight.

- Two sixes and a five. A
single point can defeat me.

- To hear is to obey.

Ah, three sixes.

You are not you,
have a good day.

- My father always said:

"You must never play

with women, "except in love".

This time I lost everything.

- Not yet.

You still have the letter that
you are carrying under your doublet.

- I have a letter?
- Do not play games.

I would have
taken it from you by force,

but I am a gambler.

I will play it for you.

- Your way of proposing things
is hard to fight.

What if I
win? What happens then?

- You leave this inn
as you entered it.

You have my word.

- All right then.

- You have lost again.

Give me this letter.

You really want to lose your
life, into the bargain?

Give me this letter.

That is the King's seal.

You are free,
knight.

Take your sword and the money.
You will

need it, because you will
have two kings

on your heels: the one of France and the one of Navarre.

- And all that, without ever
the comfort of seeing your face.

You are right, Madame.
I am having a bad day.

- Well, let us
try to improve it.

This, so that you
regret it a little.

- By taking this letter from me,
you took my honor.

That is better than an alms.

That is better.

I grant you
a deadline for the rest.

And you too, gentlemen.

- The most unlikely thing about your story is that

you were able to reach me without
anyone taking the letter from you.

- But they took it from me, Sire.
- What was that?

- Well, they believed it.

I had asked the King
to write two letters.

I let myself take the bad one, to bring you the good one.

- Do you want to try to convince me
that the devil is also a Gascon?

And if they had not let you go at all?

- You do not know me well.
- I go when I want.

- Even in death? - Even buried.

- Cursed Gascon, really.

Would you please stay here
to have dinner with me?

- If it is not an order,
I gladly accept.

- Holy Gascon.

Call my cook.

- It would be an honor for me, to have dinner
with the Dauphin of France.

- Because you know that
the content of this message?

- I demanded
that they tell me it.

I do nothing without
knowing why.

- Since you apparently
also know my answer,

I will do everything to free the King
from the clutches of this Guise

I am having dinner tonight with a
Gascon who comes from far away.

Gascons have long
teeth. What do you suggest?

- Pastry in dough as

amuse-bouche,
partridges, surrounded by

larks, turbot in
mousseline and a poultry.

- What kind of poultry?
- A chicken in the pot.

- Again? Do you have a
weakness for chicken in the pot?

You make it for me every Sunday.

- It is Mr. de Sully, who
makes all your menus.

- I am the one who eats them.
Once more, and I will be angry.

Get lost!

Our march to Chartres
will take about a month.

We will set off in eight days.

I do not believe that Guise is in a

position,

to do something militarily
by then.

- By then he will have Henry
III murdered.

- He would not dare.

- The throne of
France is worth that.

- Guise is an adventurer, but he would

not attack a
royal person

- He had placed at the King's
a contract killer named Maurevert.

- If what you
say is true, I am

the one whom the people will name
the murderer.

- Do not be afraid, Sire.
I will prevent this murder.

- I gave you no order
that I know of.

- You wanted to do it, Sire.

So I am going ahead. I
hate to obey.

- So it is I, who
will obey you.

Pardaillan, I put into your hands
the life of King Henry III.

Here is the letter.

- You have too beautiful
handwriting to leave it at that.

- You did it again
the trick with the two letters?

That is very funny.

- Here is the real one.

Take it to Henry
III through the Auvergne.

And soon Henry
IV will be King of France.

- You will serve as a
decoy. I do not buy that.

You are risking your life.
- Let's not dramatize.

- You will not pull the trick with
the boxing on me again.

I have found you. I
will not let you go anymore.

- You think so?
Yes, I do.

My dear Pardaillan...

To the horses!

- My cousin, where is my horse?

There it is.
- Hurry up.

- Pardaillan!

He is dead.
My God, he is dead!

He is....

- A thousand apologies, my
friends. See you again soon.

- Here it is! It is night.

- Press on the wheel.
Get on the wheel.

- Be careful.

- You are mistaken if you think I am
a fool, Pardaillan.

If you ran anyway to

Henry of Navarre, then you had 2 letters.

A fake one, which I
took, and a real one.

- Your cheating at dice
is worth something else.

- I spared your life,
God knows why.

I will not spare anything else
whatever it might be.

Give me the letter
that you are carrying.

- To hear is to obey.
Here it is, Madame.

- This is the answer
to the fake letter.

I want the real one. And quickly.
- You must say it immediately.

- What does that mean?

"It is said you have stomach problems.
Here is my advice:

"Take a plump poultry,
pluck it, gut it,

"peppery, salty..."

- What do you want?

That is the recipe for a chicken
in the pot, or a secret language.

- How is that supposed to work?

- If you replace "poultry"
by

"Henri de Guise", everything changes.

Then it would mean
to take the Duke of Guise,

to pluck him, to gut him
and to cook him.

Here is something that might
enlighten you. This is in verse.

This one is in the
dialect.

Here is a sixth
in Latin language.

And one that makes 7.

And 3 that make 10.

And two that make 12.

Read them carefully.
Maybe you will discover the right one.

And here is another one.

- Everyone up!

- Kill him!

- Down!

Ouch!

- Up!

Get this out of my way.

Come, you others.

Down!

- Ah!

- Give me your
sword. You are trapped.

- You are you
are the strongest.

- Get him!

- Everyone up!

- Yvan, go to the back.

Go to the back.
Go to the back.

- Come on, once more.

- What a man, this Pardaillan!

- Hold on.

Attack them,
you band of traitors.

Run away, Madame, or
they will take you as a hostage.

- Stop the fight.

Otherwise I will blow you all up.

Throw your weapons away.

Everyone down.

- Well done, Pardaillan.

- Surrender in
the next inn.

I will follow
the lady on her heels.

- Is that not enough for you?

We will not be separated anymore
until Chartres.

- My dear, once more,

let me do what I want.

- Yvan, this time,
he will not escape.

- My friends, this
time it is not my fault.

- No, Pardaillan!
Let me go!

Let me go!

If you want to kill me
then do it quickly.

- I want to invade Chartres,
and you will help me do it.

- Never!

- Yes, I threw myself into the fight.
For that I fell into your ambush.

- Never, I tell you.

- Think about it, otherwise I will tie you

to a tree in the rain.

- No. I am afraid of the thunderstorm.

- That is all right.
Go back to the hut.

My compliments, Madame.

- I wanted to let my dress dry.

- Under my eyes?

- Enough irony, Mr. Pardaillan. I
would like to make you a proposal.

- I understand what you mean.

- That is not what it is about.

- What do you want to propose to me?

To turn my back to you
while you stab me?

- You are stupid.

If I wanted that,
I would have killed you.

Killed the first time
in the inn.

On the contrary. I
spared you.

- Why actually?

- Let's say that I would not have enjoyed your death.

And even
less today than on that day.

I am glad that you
defeated me twice.

- That is a joy that I will
return to you if necessary.

- Pardaillan, you
are not in

your place,
in the camp of the Béarnais.

He will not reach the
throne. He has short legs.

Come with us.

- I admit that de
Guise has longer legs.

- Come with us, and
you will be rich.

I promise you 100,000 Ecu

and a marquisate in Lorraine.

- Who are you? How can
you promise so much?

- I am Bianca Farnese,
Princess of Parma and

daughter of Alexander Farnese,
first captain of this time.

My father has combined his interests with
those of De Guise.

His army is ready,
to intervene if it is necessary.

Come with us, Pardaillan.

I will give you everything,
and even more.

- What is that?

- Me.

I have not forgotten the kiss that
you took from me in the inn.

He did not lie.

- I must admit that you are tempting
me, and in different ways.

I am just
just a poor sinner.

I must return to Chartres first.
- To numb the King's distrust?

You will enter there.
I will give you the password.

"The thrushes of Lorraine
will fly into the Louvre."

- Very poetic.

- Give me the letter
that you are bringing back.

- How many more? I have
already given you 13.

- 13 fakes.

I will return it to you,

as soon as I have read it.
- That is fair.

Give and take.

- This one sounds true. Henry of Navarre

wants to get on his way. In three months

cross the Loire,
to surprise us.

The surprise will be his,
I swear to you.

Here is your letter.

Do you want to kill me?
- I only want your blood.

To write me an
order with your seal.

You do not trust me?
- Oh, yes I do.

But you never know.

The password could have been
changed in the meantime.

Now all that remains for me is
to say: See you soon.

- Take it easy, knight.

You still have a minute.

- Give up, Pardaillan.

- Maurevert!

He knows the password. Quick!

- I say he made it.
It is a master key.

- And if he made it, how are

we supposed to get through?

- There he is!

- Quick, to the horses.

- How did you do that?
- It takes too long to explain that.

The thrushes of Lorraine
will fly to the Louvre.

- Let them through
these gentlemen.

- Do you want to stop?

What did you tell them?

- About thrushes that
think they are eagles.

Let's go to the castle.
- One more moment.

The fold of the King of Bearn.

- Oh yes? The fifteenth.

- He is crazy!
What are you doing there?

- No, Sir.

I do not think that Henry did not write to

give his Majesty an answer.

- He was so kind as to write 15.

- What was that?
- But they were wrong.

I had the right one in my

head. You are a cheater.

- You will have to apologize
to me,

when Henry of Navarre
comes. He is on his way.

- You are a cheater.

You did not get to Béarn.

- Do you recognize this ring?

Henry of Navarre
entrusted it to me.

Catherine de' Medici gave it
to him for his wedding.

- You are right.
I recognize the ring.

Why did you not show it?

- The Gascons are poor.

I would rather have
kept it, as a souvenir.

- You Gascons, you devils.
You are a clever one.

The Duke of Guise was played with 15

wrong letters and a real diamond.

- Who tells me that
this letter was the right one?

There were 14 fake letters.

Why not 15?

My dear man, the only one that made sense.

And a double
stamp distinguished it.

- To distinguish them for you
to bring them to you.

Do you know
what it would cost me?

The kingdom and perhaps
France, life.

Then I want to know.
Do you understand?

- Are you having the King killed?

- If it hadn't been for you,
I would have already done that.

- I despise murder, that
is a sign of cowards.

A duke does not murder.

France will not accept a murderer.

- Read your history again.
It has accepted many others.

England has also
done it. Italy and Spain...

Maurevert!

On a certain
level, murder is politics.

Take all the men you need
and bring me this Pardaillan.

- That is impossible.
- I would like to see him.

- He is the most popular
man in Chartres.

He is announcing a truce between the Béarnais and

Henry III, the reconciliation between Catholics and Protestants.

- Catch him
anyway! You are an idiot.

- Do not get upset.
Let me handle this.

Thank you, Maurevert.

I will bring him in

hand and foot bound.

This is a matter between him and me.

He has beaten me twice, but
I will beat him a third time too.

I want you to become King.

- In order to become Queen?
- My rank allows it.

Queen, but not favorite.

- Thank you, my friends.

- The whole city
wants to cheer you.

- That is working wonderfully.

Spread the false news of a
truce. Between Henry III and the Béarnais!

Pardaillan, you should not joke
with history. With French history.

- But this episode
saves my life.

De Guise would not
dare to murder the hero.

- Still no Maurevert?
- He has disappeared.

Everything is fine.
- It is boring.

- Why is that?

- The Béarnais is not there, will
the King always be in danger?

- If Guise wants to murder the King
he will do it.

You will not stop him.

- Yes. Only Guise would have to
show the tip of his nose.

- I never understood you.
It will not begin today.

- You innkeeper!

- Oh, there! Oh, man!

To see the knight,
one has to pay.

- We just want something to eat.

- Our mistress is giving
a dinner this evening.

- Those are ambassadors whose
queen I would like to get to know.

- The most dangerous traps
take on the faces of women.

- Not often enough.

- This is a trap. This is the
tip of the nose of the Duke of Guise.

- A pretty nose tip.

- Pardaillan will follow them.
That must be prevented.

Do you hear that?

- I do not hear anything anymore,
cousin. I am watching.

- No, that would hurt him too much.

Ah!

A ham. Here it
is. He loves ham.

They are cheering.

Pardaillan, where are you going?

- There is a woman out there,
a very interesting lady.

What are you doing there?
With this ham?

- I?
- Yes, I do.

- Nothing.
- Ah.

- Nothing at all.

- Look at the beautiful
knight. How beautiful he is.

He will keep us company
while we feast.

- The Duchess will not want that.
- She will not know.

You will climb
onto the lackey chair.

- Are we not
four pretty girls?

- Oh, no.
Not in front of me.

- What do you want?
- Keep your hands off Pardaillan.

- - What is she interfering for?
Why are you interfering?

What has that got to do with you?

- Then come on.
- Thank you, knight.

- You really like ham.
- Yes, I love ham.

- Well, then, go and
cut yourself a slice.

Are you coming with us?
- Yes.

- Look at the young
man, whether he has a nice profile.

- No. This time, you
will not get me.

- This way, knight.
- And why not here?

- But no!

- Who allowed you to do that?
- I hate eating alone.

I am asking you to.
Would you prefer the leg?

- Then come on.

I am kidnapping you, knight.

I have a long way to go.

There are many bandits there, and I could

not imagine anyone better than you as a bodyguard.

- Believe me that this is one of the things in the

world that I will keep.

We are being followed.
Stop the carriage.

- Stand still.

- For heaven's sake!

Where are firearms hidden?

- Get out now.
- Good.

So, knight?

- How was the trip?
- A little slow, in my opinion.

I could hardly
wait to see you again.

- Did you know that you
would see me again?

- Who else but you could have come up with the idea to have me

kidnapped by four chambermaids?

- You are very smart,
knight.

But you are still
in my hands.

Are you not afraid?
- Not yet.

- What does that mean?

- That means if you wanted to do something to me,

you would be more tender, like in the hut.

One more kiss,
and farewell, Pardaillan.

- Do not be too
proud of yourself.

This kiss has prevented the
life of your ruler from being in danger.

- Henry of Navarre?
- No, Henry III.
- Henry III.

saved by a kiss?

That would be the limit.

- Stop joking.

Henri de Guise has lost his patience.

He knows nothing about the agreements
between Henry III and the Béarnais.

De Guise is violent.

Violence seems to him
the simplest policy.

A little bit more, and I will
not be able to prevent the worst.

If you absolutely want Henry III

to save, follow me at the
end of a certain corridor.

- That depends on
what I will find there.

- You will find de Guise there.

We are here at his place.

- Well, well done.
How many will there be?

- Are you afraid, knight?
- Yes.

But only of you, my lady.

What should I tell him?
- A lie.

Anything to distract him from the lie
and from his plans to kill the King.

But I trust you.
You are a good liar.

- In your name, the
compliment touches me.

- How does it look?
Is that a yes, knight?

- To hear is to obey.

Well done.

Here is one who lies
even better than I do.

- Who is that?
- A fool, Madame.

I do not mean you any harm.

- Where exactly am I?
- In my room.

- I can see that.
In whose room?

- Who are you anyway?
- The Chevalier de Pardaillan.

- "Pardaillan....."

I think I have
heard this name before.

Are you this Pardaillan, who
annoys my husband?

- I did not think that
I know you, Madame.

Who are you?

- I will not tell you,
you would leave.

But I would like to know why
you are in my room.

- I did not sneak into your room,

even though you are so beautiful.

I am not here voluntarily. I was forced to it.
What does "forced" mean? By whom?

- Bianca Farnese.
- My worst enemy.

- Your enemy?

You...
- Catherine de Clèves.

- The wife of the Duke of
Guise. Well done, Bianca.

My lady.

Our tête-à-tête will
soon be interrupted.

- What do you mean by that?

- All exits are closed.

If you do not want to be cast out,
you must scream.

- Why is that?
- I will tell you later.

- You are hurting me.

- It hurts when you scream.

- It is because I do not feel like it.

It is not necessary to bind me, Pardaillan.

- Scream!
- But I cannot.

- Good.
- Ouch!

- Well done. Once more.
- Ouch!

You are crazy!
- You will understand that it is not so.

Scream!
- Ouch!

- Once more.
- Ouch!

What are you doing there?

- Damn it, scream!
- Ouch!

- Finally.

I have you, Madame.

- Monsieur de Pardaillan, you
here, in the Duchess's room?

- What a surprise!

- Madame, I congratulate you.

You are a notary,
so you are a witness.

This is my wife
and her lover.

Please do your duty.

- Please wait a
moment. You are so romantic.

I, the lover of
Madame? You are dreaming, aren't you?

I had come for something quite
else. For this here.

I needed money.
An old debt.

- That is a lie.
Pardaillan is not a thief.

- Thank you for defending me, but

I am caught red-handed.

- Are these your jewels, Madame?
- Yes.

He threw himself at me.

He hit me
until I gave them to him.

- You are lovers.
Make your finding, sir.

To establish, I must
see and I must hear.

I heard the woman scream
out of pain, not out of love.

I found her bound,
which is not common in love.

And this man gave me
this box.

Where is the adultery in that?

No, really not.
I cannot see it.

Kind regards,
Madame. My lady.

My respect, my
sir. And my regret.

- Go away.

You fool!

I owe you an apology.
I apologize to you.

Let me add
my congratulations.

I never accused you
of being stupid.

As for you, whether lover or

thief, you have nothing to lose.

Maurevert!

Take him and throw

him into our worst dungeon.

- Everyone down.
Go down!

What a man, this Pardaillan!

- "Since I have heard
that the defendant has admitted his

crime "at the scene of the crime",

"the court decides and orders
that Mr. Pardaillan

"be subjected to the wheel and then
have his head chopped off"

- You will be avenged.

- The verdict is immediately enforceable.

- You still have one chance to save yourselves.

- By confessing to be your wife's lover?

- If you want.

What interests me is the content
of the Béarnais's response to Henri III.

And then I am allowed to die of old age in your dungeons?

I prefer to do it in the open air.

- You will be free.
- I give you my word on it.

- You take your word back as
easily as you give it.

You show me what your nobility consists of.

- For the last time:

Do you accept the proposal
I am making to you?

The executioner is waiting.

- If Princess Farnese confirms
what you say, I accept.

- Do you trust women?
- This one, yes.

I also value my enemies.

- I give you my word.
- Were you there?

- I am interested in every moment in the life
of my intimate enemy: Monsieur de Pardaillan.

- This existence is at risk.
You will finally have peace.

Unless I give my word
to guarantee that of the Duke.

- Two bad locks are
not better than one good lock.

- And if I slap you?
- The Duke was kind enough to do it.

- Stop being so cheeky!

- It is better that you
should leave us in peace.

You are the only enemy
that I cannot hate.

There is always something I
do not know that prevents me from doing so.

- Neither can I, I
cannot hate you.

With the difference that I
know what prevents me from doing so.

- Let us talk about our
affairs.

If I guarantee your pardon and your

immediate freedom, will you write what he demanded?

- Yes, I will.

- Right now, here?
In front of my eyes?

- I just need to be encouraged.

- "Encouraged"?

- There is a very simple
and effective way to encourage me.

- What kind?

- You are too far away. I
cannot tell you.

That is a family secret.

- What makes you think that interests me?

- Your eyes.

- Perhaps they lie.

- I do not think so.
Let me see.

Come even closer.

- Well yes.

You have secrets
worth knowing.

See you later.

- Do not hurry.

There is no point in getting the pen,
I will not write anything.

De Guise is a coward. He
will not be King of France.

- Another one of your jokes?

- Are you angry at a man
condemned to death,

for using every means
to get a kiss?

- You fool!

All your boasting
will take you to the gallows.

- They will definitely
stop you from ruling France.

- You will speak under torture.

You will speak.

I swear to you that you will talk!

- Pardaillan has not returned.

- And what happened?

I am slowly getting
sick of this story.

He will come back tomorrow.

And besides, how do
I look? How do I look?

- Yvan, on a horse.
- Who is that?

- The two of us. We
must find Pardaillan.

- Again?

As if there were nothing else.

- My lord, are you the friend of Pardaillan?

- I have that terrifying honor.

- Try to persuade him,
otherwise he will die.

- Then come on.

- Here is something that will
distract you, Pardaillan.

When you come back out, you
will be good at being a corpse.

I will finish you off.
- All is well that ends well.

- After that you will
sing a different tune.

- Open up! The
prisoner has escaped.

Open up!
Pardaillan has escaped!

To the guard!

Open the door!

- My lord....

- Pardaillan has escaped again.
Are you doing this on purpose?

One does not escape
from my prisons.

You have to let that
sink in.

- He did not escape alone.
Someone helped him.

Princess Bianca Farnese is wearing
the same clothes, my lord.

- Bianca?

That is impossible.

- What are you doing here? What
are you doing in prison?

- Pardaillan has escaped.

- That is becoming a refrain.

- There is nothing to laugh about,
Miss my sister.

- Stop worrying
and let Pardaillan run.

I have what we need.

Take him to the cell.

I will see him later.

-
Is that all?

A monk who kills a Catholic King?

- He will not accept that.
- Do you think so?

And if I ask him nicely?

- He will refuse,
at the last moment.

- I do not think so.

He is hiding from his
family and his friends.

He is hiding from the persecution
that he and his family have suffered.

He hates him as much as one
person can hate another.

The rest is in
your hands, Henri.

Go to the King and convince him

that he must go on
the pilgrimage.

Must start this pilgrimage tomorrow morning.

- I will never forget that.

- If you were to forget it,
I would refresh your memory.

- Well...

- The friends of Pardaillan.
Put them in prison.

- You have no right to do that!

That is beneath your dignity.

- You are right.

- Why? You wanted
to make him talk.

- Do not bother.
Pardaillan has escaped.

- What happened?
That is impossible.

- Do not try to make me believe
that you do not know.

- How should I know?

- Show him the
key to the secret.

Is that not one of yours?

- Yes, that is it.
It is one of mine.

I did not give it to him.
He took it from me.

- So you were so close to
him that he could do that?

I wish you
a safe journey home.

- Henri, listen to me.
- I have much better things to do.

The King is expecting me in Chartres.

- 1, 2, 3.

I am so clumsy,
today.

- My lord, the Duke of Guise
is asking for an audience with your Majesty.

- "De Guise"? Here?

That is impossible.

- Nothing is impossible
for this man.

We must receive him.

Is he alone?

- Nothing to fear today.
The stars are clear.

- They were also when
Caesar was murdered.

- Caesar was alone,
and we are here.

- You are here. Thank God.

So, my mother?

Bring in a lord
Duke of Guise.

- Please accept my
homage, Madame.

May you live long, Sire,
and God will protect you.

- That is a very commendable
wish, and it does you honor.

But as the farmers from my
Italian homeland say: "The eel that has crawled out of the basket

has sat itself in the basket. Once it has come out of its fish trap, it distrusts the willow."

- You distrust
me, I am sorry.

Problems with details
have arisen between us, but

the blame was not mine.
Not only on my side.

Like the secret alliance
between you and the

Béarnais through the mediation
of a certain Pardaillan.

Your kingdom is Catholic,
Sire.

He wants to go to Mass, and you dream
of sending him to the temple.

- That is not true.
- The French believe that.

Your anger grows every
day. Calm them down.

- I want nothing else.

But how should I do that?

- You can transfer the
lieutenancy general of the

kingdom to me
and recognize me as Dauphin,

but that, I fear,
that would not be enough.

It would be better if Your
Majesty, through a public

penance, connects to a glorious
past, for example.

- "A public penance"?
- Yes.

- I should cross Chartres
on foot and

stop in front of every church
to receive a blessing?

- Why not, Sire?

- Because there are more
than 20 churches

in Chartres, - without
counting the chapels.

- You could skip
a few of them.

And the whole thing
would end with a

triumphal Te Deum in the
Cathedral of Chartres.

- I believe that our cousin,
the Duke of Guise, is right.

Yes, you must accept it

this penance, Henri, for France's sake.

- So for France,
my mother.

- That is for tomorrow, Jacques.

The third church
before the cathedral.

- What about you?

I was sure!

I said it. You fool!

- I?
- This time it is me.

- What will they do with us?
- Two corpses.

- - So we will no longer go
looking. In search of Pardaillan.

The door is being opened.

So early?

- Pardaillan!
- Not so loud.

- You did not escape?

- I had to find out
the plans of De Guise.

Here is the man who
will murder Henry III.

murder.

- And we are prisoners.

You will not prevent the course of French history. - Yes, you will.

Because we are not prisoners.

- Do you also have the keys
to the castle drawbridge?

- No.
- What does it look like?

- Here one overlooks the moat from
50 meters high. We would have to be birds.

- Let's go into the chapel and
ask God to give us wings.

Come with me.

- The man is crazy.

- The guards.

- Is there anything to report?
- Nothing.

- Did you see the prisoner?
- No.

- Thank you, old man.

Congratulations again
and good night.

- This way.

- You idiot.

- That is high.

- The churches? Still.
- I did not notice.

These ropes
will not be long enough.

- We will break our legs.

- The executioner will break them
for you. You have the choice.

- You call that
deciding?

- We are all three going down together.

- But what if the rope snaps?

- Then we will
get down faster. That is all.

Go ahead.

- No. All three together,
that is impossible.

The guards will hear the first one jump into the water

and will not present
their weapons.

Go, d'Angoulême.
- Pardaillan!

- Brace yourself against the wall,
swing and let go.

- We will kill each other.

- Would you rather stay hanging
at the end of this rope?

- On one, on two.

- Did you let them escape?
- Those are three devils.

- "Three"?
- Yes, there were three.

- Pardaillan was still with them.

Get on your way and
bring them back to me, damn it!

Bring them back to me!

- Why do you want me
to climb this tree?

- Because you never look for
people in the trees.

And I need a horse
to get to Chartres.

- You are served.
Here are a dozen.

Let them through.

A nice safe conduct
to enter Chartres.

- Quick, cousin. To the horses.

- Everything is fine.
The King has agreed.

- How about yours?
- It is wonderful.

He is ready for anything.
I am ready for anything.

You will be King of
France tomorrow, Henri.

Take a look at that.

The bells are ringing.

- Good people of France, "Your King

and the Duke of
Guise are reconciled.

"The Duke will take over "the general

lieutenantship of the
kingdom.

"To seal the reconciliation,

"the King will do penance

through the city on foot "and hear a Te

Deum in the
Cathedral of Chartres."

- Mingle with the crowd.

I am here with my men.

When that is done, we will
close the church.

A carriage will be waiting for you here.

Come with me.
You are in no danger.

- Step closer and ask

God for forgiveness
for your sins.

- Do not come any closer!

- On the murderer!

- Quick, cousin, quick.

Come on, quick!

Surrender.
You are trapped.

You cannot escape.
- Come and get me.

- Everyone up!

- Pardaillan!

- Go away!

Go away!

So much for him.

- He is here!

Did you manage to escape?
- Yes, and I have come to thank you.

- For having set a
trap for you?

- No. For the kiss the other

evening and for the little souvenir.

- What gift?
- Your hairpin.

Thanks to it, I prevented
Henry III from being murdered.

- What? Guise dared to?
- Yes.

Through the mediation of the monk.

- I wanted to become Queen of France,
but not through murder.

Guise would do it again.

And murder is repugnant to me. Guise
will carry on without me.

- You will abandon de Guise?
Come on...

- Yes. And I will take
your best enemy from you.

You do not believe me?

I am sincere.

- If you kiss me,
then you must be lying.

- Not when I
kissed you in your cell.

And besides, as for the
pin, I knew that.

I gave you a
chance to escape.

- I will check all of that.

There is Maurevert.
He is looking for me.

You just have to hand me over.

- Pardaillan is here.
- He is not here.

- We saw him break in
through your window.

- I am telling you
that he is not here.

- Too bad.

- You held me up
so he could escape.

You are his accomplice.
You love him.

You will serve as a hostage.
- I will not accompany you.

- Oh, do you think so?

- Where is Pardaillan?
- He is not here.

- He is not there?

What is wrong?
- I am very happy.

The King has called him to him,
to congratulate him.

For his action this morning.
- "The King"? - "The King"?

- That was a hard
blow, Monsieur de Pardaillan.

And it brought me to
make a decision.

I will set up
a bodyguard for myself.

I have set the number at 45.

Would you do me the honor of being the 46th?

- Is that a defensive guard?

Or an offensive guard?

- To ensure defense, we
may have to go on the offensive.

- That means we must be
offensive, through murder?

- That is a very big word.

- As big as de Guise.

- You understood me well,
Pardaillan.

Guise has attacked me,
and I will defend myself.

I will convene
the Estates General in Blois, I invite him as

Lieutenant General of the kingdom, and there
Guise, without his army,

will be at the mercy of my grace.

- At the mercy of
45 dagger blows.

I will not be the
46th. Murder is repugnant to me.

- That is very noble of
you, Chevalier de Pardaillan.

But consider that the disappearance of the

Duke of Guise serves the interests of the Béarnais.

- But not mine,
Madame.

Allow me to withdraw.

- You are not thinking of doing that,
Pardaillan.

You must accept...
or perish.

You know too much.

- And will you line up
six deep?

- I do not need to.

- Be altruistic. It is important
that everyone gets to have some fun.

- This morning I amused myself
by saving your life.

And you are amusing yourself
by killing me.

- What do you want,
Knight? This is politics.

So, Pardaillan?
- What do you want? I accept.

- Ah. There you are. Now
you are being reasonable again.

- I have no way
to act differently.

Let me go, or

I will kill him before your eyes.

- Stop!

No, not him.

Let him go.

That is an order from the King.

I told you to
leave him alone.

He would kill him.

- Sire, do not sound
the alarm before I am outside.

Otherwise the 45
will be only 44.

- This can cost us dearly.

- Arm yourselves from head
to toe. Strike the city.

We must find this
Pardaillan and kill him.

- D'Angoulême...

- Ah, there he is.

- I just did something stupid.

- What kind of stupidity?

- I refused the King's order
to murder de Guise.

- What is that supposed to mean?

"murder de Guise"?
- We are leaving.

3 rations of oats
for the horses.

I refused, now they
will try to kill me.

- That is complete.
- It is perfect.

You have turned the people of
De Guise and Henry III against you.

What will you do?
- Flee.

- You think you are just going to walk out like that?

- I always keep

what is offered.

With a bit of skill,
we will

get out the way we came in.

- Where are you going?

- To Bianca.

- To tell her what?

- I am going to warn de Guise that
he is in danger of being murdered.

Bianca will do it.

- You are throwing yourself
into the lion's den.

Why do you care if he is murdered?

- I do not like murder.
That is all.

- Is that why you are going to Bianca?

- I want to make sure
that she is being honest.

- But what do you care whether she is sincere?

- There are many things.

- I wanted to save you from your
madness. This time I will refrain.

If you leave Bianca's house alive,
we take the road to Roussillon.

Goodbye.

- Not even English boxing?

- No, Pardaillan. Go
to the devil. I give up.

- I will return.
- But yes.

But yes, but yes.

I showed him.
Come on, let's go.

We will meet him at Bianca's.

- Save Pardaillan!
I beg you.

- And now here we go again!

- You walked into the trap, Pardaillan.

I knew
that you would come back.

- You brought the artillery.
- All at your service.

One movement, and they shoot.

- Where is Bianca?

- On ice, until you are there too.

- If I do the Duke of Guise a favor,

a very great favor, will you let her go?

- You, do him a favor?

Do you think I am stupid?
- Yes, I do.

But try to understand
what I am going to tell you.

If de Guise goes to Blois,
he will be murdered.

- How will that happen?

- I was offered to
kill him. I refused.

But that will not change anything.
Tell him quickly.

- I know enough. After five we will
settle our accounts.

How about
right now?

Do not
shoot!

- Throw away your weapons.

- Do as he says.

- Well done. That is smart.

- Take them with you.

- I do not believe
you, Monsieur de Pardaillan.

The King would never
dare to murder me.

- You tried to murder him.
- Yes.

But I am a brave man,
and the King is a coward.

Deciding on the death
of a human is not so simple.

Especially when it is
Henri de Guise.

You are a wonderful
confuser of cards.

It would be a nice success for your friend, the

Béarnais, if I miss the Estates General.

As you wish, sir, but you will
act like a fool out of pure intelligence.

- I will go to Blois anyway.

If you were right, and should a misfortune

befall me, know that I will not die alone.

I have a hostage here.

She has betrayed my cause
to serve yours.

Perhaps out of love. Therefore
I am taking her to Blois.

If I die, she will be executed.

Are you prepared to take the risk?
- I do not accept it.

- Pardaillan!

- Rest assured. She will
only die if I die.

This way, you were
wrong when you were right.

- This key will
easily open your shackles.

Wait for the Angelus bell to sound.

Three horses will be waiting for you. The drawbridge will be

lowered, and I will send the entire garrison
away in their honor.

- Who are you, Madame?

- You were a cavalier.
I will never forget that.

Thanks to you, I am still
the Duchess of Guise.

Tomorrow, at the first strike of the
Angelus. Do not forget it.

All you have left to do is
to stun the guard.

Guard!

- The guard!

- The King will be at home, and
call de Guise as soon as he is there.

We will stand here and
hit him as he passes by.

The battle cry is: "Kill! Kill!
Death to the tyrant."

"Kill! Kill!

- Follow me.
This time it is an order.

- Bold Pardaillan!
The strong one!

- There he is!

Come on!

- Is it you, my cousin?

Come here. Come here.

- Kill him! Death to the tyrant.

- The tyrant is dead!
De Guise is dead!

We have avenged the King.

- De Guise is dead.

- Even if one is named Pardaillan, the knight of

Pardaillan, it is hard to reverse the course of history.

Take a look at this.

Maurevert will execute Bianca.
- Here we go!

- Madame, it is time.

The Duke of Guise
has just been murdered.

- No! No!

- I would have given my life
for the Duke.

Do not expect mercy.

We will say that
you loved the Duke,

that you could not bear his death.

- No, Maurevert.
I beg you.

- They are going to kill her.

- Stay calm, my
dear, and above all, methodical.

- Let me go! No, no, no!

- Commend your
soul to God.

- Go that way.

The carriage is there.
Do as I say.

- Pardaillan, she has
reached her carriage.

- On one... on two!

Everyone up!

On one... on two!

I recognize your loyalty.

- One cannot
be loyal. With you.

You are too cunning. I
will not be squeamish.

Draw your pistols.

- Let them approach.
We will jump to the other side.

- Grab them!

- Goodbye.

- And now,

Pardaillan, just us two.

Alone with yourself.
- "Alone as a pair." I agree.

Yes, yes.

I could kill you.

But too many have already died, and your

death would not be of much use.

I believe you can swim.

Then you will come out cleaner.

- I curse you,
Pardaillan. I will find you.

- Well done,
Pardaillan. Well done.

- We must say goodbye.
- You will not do it again.

We will join Henry
of Navarre.

- I have thought a lot.

I do not like the idea
of having a teacher.

I get along better
with women.

- He is crazy,

you are crazy.

Bianca Farnese

wanted your death.

Anyone you want, but not her.
- Why is that?

She attracts me
like no other.

Love takes strange paths.
- I will stop her.

- Hat and pistol of
Maurevert. "Everyone up!

- Pardaillan, I will stop you
from doing such a stupid thing.

- As you wish. But let
us let fate decide.

If the wind blows her
to Italy, Bianca.

If it blows her to
the Pyrenees, Henry of Navarre.

- Very good.

You are cheating. You are blowing.

One more. Please, please, please.

- My friends, the
session is closed.

- Is it day or night?

Huh?

- You will pay.

You will pay for everything.

And above all...

all the handkerchiefs I used
waiting for you, crying.

Admit that it is me
who wins the last round.

- Are you sure about that?
Is that really so certain?

- Oh, Pardaillan!
Are you crazy?
