I came across this movie it in Blockbuster Movies Online while searching for movies to rent. I had never heard of this film before but the line up of stars, Stewart Granger, Eleanor Parker, Mel Ferrer and Janet Leigh, and the description intrigued me. The story of Scaramouche is set in the turbulent times prior to the French Revoultion. The film makes no political statement and is purely entertaining featuring some the greatest sword play ever filmed. The period costumes and sets are fantastic and the color superb throughout. Stewart Granger is at his dashing best and Janet Leigh is a beauty to behold! This is an unknown gem of a movie and deserves to be included the list of all time classics!
