"To die among friends. Can a man ask more? Can the world offer less? Who wants to live 'till the last bottle is empty? It's all-for one, d'Artagnan, and one for all." - Athos

Why watch this? Gene Kelly's skills are unmatched when it comes to choreographed spectacle.

Plot Summary: Young d'Artagnan travels to Paris seeking to join the King's Musketeers, but his impulsiveness quickly leads him into challenging three of the elite swordsmen to a duel. However, instead of fighting each other, they unite against Cardinal Richelieu's guards and become inseparable friends. D'Artagnan and his new companions become entangled in courtly intrigue and political maneuvers orchestrated by Richelieu, working to protect the honor of the Queen of France.

Dad's Preview: Gene Kelly knows dancing. A veteran of several hit musicals of the '40's, he brings forth this lavish tale of the greatest swashbucklers ever to hoist a foil. There is an all-star cast and incredible costumes, but the star of this blockbuster is the fight choreography, supervised by Kelly himself. It is breathtaking to watch. Like a complicated dance routine, our four heroes defy physics as they thrust and parry, swing from chandeliers, and rescue those in need. There are other film versions, but none more epic.
