Dumas (DVD)

Nobody knows Auguste Maquet/ and yet everybody knows The Three Musketeers/ Everybody knows Alexandre Dumas who wrote the swashbuckling masterpiece but who knows that Maquet is his co-writer? Nobody does/ as his name does not appear on the cover. At least not Charlotte Desrives/ the lovely daughter of a doctor stagnating in prison for his political opinions. When the lively girl mistakes the shy Maquet for the fiery ex-revolutionary Dumas/ begging him to help her to have her father released/ the former makes few efforts to put her right. She is so admiring of him ... She is so pretty ...
