reviewed The Countess de Charney and The Chevalier de Maison Rouge: A Tale of the Reign of Terror on July 29, 2011 The Countess de Charney and The Chevalier de Maison Rouge: A Tale of the Reign of Terror
Recently watched the 15 episode series (in French) which dramatizes all 4 volumes of the Revolution cycle (Joseph Balsamo, Queen's necklace, Ange Pitou and this one); with an awesome cast the TV mini series focuses only on the personal aspect of the main characters (of course as the Queen is among them, there is some political stuff) and while the the 1770 part is a bit weaker (the personal stuff is faithful but that was only a part of the book) and the 1784 part is skimpy, the miniseries starts being impossible to stop watching from episode 7 or so when Gilbert comes home from America and the Revolution starts.
Reminded me once again why that part (and the two books - Ange Pitou and La Comtesse de Charny which are in effect one large novel) is still among my all time favorites as i was keeping the books opened on one screen when watching the film on the other since the dialog is kept original and I am better at reading French than at listening to it
The book is still superb and the ending as bittersweet as it gets
