Le Comte de Monte-Cristo

Directed by Robert Vernay

Synopsis

Edmond Dantes is falsely accused by those jealous of his good fortune, and is sentenced to spend the rest of his life in the notorious island prison, Chateau d'If. While imprisoned, he meets the Abbe Faria, a fellow prisoner whom everyone believes to be mad. The Abbe tells Edmond of a fantastic treasure hidden away on a tiny island, that only he knows the location of. After many years in prison, the old Abbe dies, and Edmond escapes disguised as the dead body. Now free, Edmond must find the treasure the Abbe told him of, so he can use the new-found wealth to exact revenge on those who have wronged him...

  • Review by PacificNil ★★★

    Nur 11 Jahre, nachdem Robert Vernay Alexandre Dumas' Monumentalroman "Der Graf von Monte Christo", von 1844-1846 in einer Zeitschrift in Fortsetzungen erschienen und damit ein Vorläufer des heutigen Serienkonzepts, verfilmte, reizte ihn der Stoff erneut zu einem Kinozweiteiler. Vernay verändert diesmal einige Details des Romans, während er in der Verfilmung von 1943 nur Handlungselemente wegließ. So fallen die Rollen der Verschwörer Danglars und Caderousse in eine Person und die Begegnung mit Napoleon Bonaparte wird zu Beginn des Films gezeigt. Wie in der Verfilmung zuvor ist der Regisseur Robert Vernay jedoch nie daran interessiert, die zahlreichen Höhepunkte des Romans - sei es die Flucht in die Freiheit durch eine List, das Auffinden des Schatzes, der Karneval in Venedig oder die zahlreichen Gothic-Horror-Elemente, wenn Dantes seine Rache vollzieht - filmisch als Setpiece umzusetzen. Stattdessen konzentriert er sich auf Gespräche und liefert damit ein schön bebildertes Hörspiel.

  • Review by C_elegans ★★★★

    Obwohl Alexandre Dumas' "Der Graf von Monte Christo" wohl zu den meistverfilmten Geschichten aller Zeiten gehört, kannte ich das Drama bisher nicht. Auch wenn ich die Handlung nur mäßig interessant finde, bin ich durchaus froh, mir zunächst diese aufwendige, aber schöne französisch-italienische Produktion von 1954 angesehen zu haben. Die gut gespielten Figuren bewahren eine gewisse Unaufgeregtheit, die die Erzählung erfreulicherweise nie zu stark ins Melodramatische abdriften lässt, obwohl sich reichlich Chancen dazu bieten. Look und Aufmachung erinnern an die Monumentalklassiker aus dieser Zeit.

    في أول اقتباس ناطق باللغة الفرنسية من الرواية الإخراج البصري جميل بتصاميم أنيقة للملابس و إتقان الديكورات البرجوازية بسيناريو أحداث جيد لكن كان بالإمكان جعله أقصر من المدة المعروضة و أكبر سلبية في العمل هو تواضع أداء الطاقم التمثيلي و على رأسهم أداء جان ماريه ظهوره على الشاشة بارد و باهت كما لو أنه كائن آلي يتحرك فقط

  • Review by Igraine ★★★½

    decent two-piece movie that could've definitely benefited from cutting some of its scenes. the main actor was pretty amazing, though, and despite hand-colouring (?) not strictly being necessary for most black-and-white movies I thought it gave this movie in particular a very nice touch - especially because they chose to keep it mostly in a red-green palette that just looked soooo pretty
