Magnificent illustration of French history, with the accent of the legend. The previous comment contains a mistake: THIS IS NOT Louis de Funès playing the part of Bertrand du Guesclin, but Fernand Gravey (the famous Capitaine Fracasse, directed by Abel Gance). Indeed Louis de Funès plays numerous other parts (3) including a semi-villain Spanish captain (Henriquez, if I remember correctly). Noël Roquevert makes a highly believable squire. Many scenes are deeply moving. Casting, writing, directing, and props are worthy of the golden age of French cinema. It must certainly have been a great relief for the French audience to watch this movie after so painful a decade for their fatherland.
