Angélique, marquise des anges

How is it possible that no one before wrote a review of this movie and that less than 30 persons voted on it?

Maybe the predominantly American audience of IMDb is not much aware of French movies. French ladies (and especially young ladies!) and gentlemen, give your comments! The honor of France is at stake!

The movies of the "Angelique" series are the ULTIMATE SENTIMENTAL CLOAK AND DAGGER STORY! A whole generation of French (and not only French!!) teenagers has swooned over these movies. So much adventure, splendid 17th century costumes, romantic love, faith and treason, it is all there! Of course the events often transgress the limits of what is credible, but who cares? Just don't be ashamed of enjoying these movies! And, of course, Michèle Mercier is splendid as the incredibly seductive and courageous heroine "Angelique".

This movie is old : 1964. Most IMDb users won't never watch it, as it is probably difficult to get a copy in other countries. The whole angelique series is a very very good example of what french cinema could be. My mother was very fond of the books, and I saw the films when I was a child. I liked them as adventure movies, and I watched them again as an adult and wasn't disappointed at all, even if as an adult i understood the adventure is secondary to the romance. But good romance it is ! Great story, good playing and... Well, All good.

IMHO only pirates of Caribbean black pearl reach the level of these as epic adventure watchable by the whole family. Another awesome movie in a very different way, but let's get back to Angelique...

French history of the time is not really acute, but is good enough. Quite good, indeed, even for an historian. Michele Mercier is great and Joffrey de peyrac is THE MAN every woman dreams of ( I mean Joffrey, not Robert Hossein). Underrated for sure, and this (and other following movies of the angelique series) is by far out of reach of nowadays french cinema, and alas, probably forever.

Pretty damn good not gonna lie. I like how corrupted France is represented and the fact that she falls in love with him despite the ruined body. For a film of 1965, it is incredible how it makes new films look like a joke especially with the budgets and this is being said by a 22yo person. I would recommend it's a good film even if far from best.

Such a pity! It's not possible to buy this movie anymore. I read all Angelique's adventures (there are 14, I guess) on account of this film. I showed the movie to my teenager french niece and she loved it! We can learn a lot about french history,human feelings and have great fun altogether. Find it in your local video store and enjoy romance and adventure...

I have seen this movie, and all the others of the series. They are excellent if you liked the books, and also like the atmospher of adventure, 17th century, royal court affairs, etc. I would advise to see this movie.
