Starring: Charlie Sheen, Keifer Sutherland, Chris O’Donnell, Oliver Platt, Tim Curry and Rebecca DeMornay (filmed in Austria, with Lipizzans in supportive roles)
This movie was filmed in Austria, with Lipizzans in supportive roles. Cardinal Richelieu devises an evil plot: he will form an alliance with enemy England by way of the mysterious Milady. Rochefort, the Cardinal’s right-hand man, announces the official disbanding of the King’s Musketeers. Three, however, refuse to throw down their swords: Athos the fighter and drinker, Porthos, the pirate and lover, and Aramis, the priest and poet.
Arriving in Paris to join the Musketeers, D’Artagnan, a Musketeer want-to-be, uncovers the Cardinal’s plans, and the four set out on a mission to protect King and Country. There are wonderful scenes of riding and charging the battlements, swords in hand.
[TRIVIA: This film was mostly shot in Perchtoldsdorf, Austria, where Rebecca De Mornay attended high school and college.]
