Tight Columbia swasbuckler with a neat idea - some French officers at the end of the 30 year war try to stop villainous Frenchy Victor Jory from trying to start up war again. George MacCready is a good generaal the hero is Larry Parks who feels very American. But its amicable and fun. Margureite Chapman has a meaty role as Jory's spy/mistress who falls for Parks - she's got something to play.
Some beautiful diction on display with Jory and Macready. Henry Levin keeps it fast. From a Dumas story.
