And that's not so better than if it was produced by the "infamous" Katzman. OK, watch it just as as poor man's THREE MUSKETEERS. Columbia pictures will provide many of this kind, not only Universal Studios. THE SWORDMAN, from director Joseph H Lewis and also starring Larry Parks, is also more or less as this one. Don't forget too, from Columbia Pictures: THE FIGHTING GUARDSMAN, RETURN OF MONTE CRISTO. And William Castle will also make many of adventure, costume adventures, but not a Musketeer's like film though. Any period of "history" but not this one, as far as I remember. This is a shame not watch it in the genuine Cinecolor, but Cinecolor movies is hard to find else than black and white. Agreeable cloak and dagger - swashbuckler costume action flick. Nothing else. And notice that finding a swashbuckler film from Columbia Pictures without George Mc Ready in the late forties, is like finding a western without a horse or a gun.
