Terrible movie. Arthur Conan Doyle's short stories are apparently quite fun and George MacDonald Fraser was a huge fan - it sounds as though they influenced Flashman. But this movie is stupid. I never got a sense of Gerard, Peter McEnerey was just... whatever in a moustache. Claudia Cardinale is beautiful and can have chemistry with anyone but she's not in it much.
Jack Hawkins is in it, ditto John Neville and Eli Wallach as Napoleon. I couldn't follow what was going on, I didn't care. This just annoyed me.
