The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan and The Three Musketeers: Milady are parts one and two of an epic adaptation of the book by Dumas. It's a closer adaptation than is usual, and I appreciated that, though some of the changes are strange. The notable actor for us is Eva Green.

We couldn't find it available on any of the services we already had. We discovered it was available on Hoopla, which is a media site offered through public libraries. Sadly, our library didn't offer it. Exploring a bit further afield, we saw that a few of the nearby suburban systems offer this service and let you get a non-resident card for a price. That gives you full access to Hoopla, which gives you 10 checkouts each month. We drove 30 minutes north to the Millington library, paid our $30 for an annual non-resident card, came home and signed up with Hoopla, and watched the first movie on our TV. Easy. I highly recommend it if your library (or a nearby one) offers Hoopla.

...you know services that I've never heard of.
ReplyDeleteI found this one looking for where I could see this movie. I'd never heard of it before.
DeleteHow many versions of this film are there. I can think of 2 others. I haven't seen this one. I need to check out my library for Hoopla. Thanks for mentioning that.
ReplyDeleteThere are tons of adaptations of this book. Tons!
DeleteI'll have to watch for it to show up elsewhere. I'm sure it will eventually. :)
ReplyDeleteSurely.
DeleteLove this story, my favorite is the one done in the 1970s with Michael York and Richard Chamberlain. I get Hulu through Disney. I’ll have to check this version out. - CJ
ReplyDeleteWe get Hulu as part of our Disney bundle, but it's on Hoopla and not Hulu...
DeleteI've never heard of Hoopla, but I doubt they have it.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised so many of the suburban libraries had it when ours did not. You never know until you check.
DeleteSuch a well known story.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
with so many movies based on it!
DeleteThis is always a fun one!
ReplyDeleteYes. It's no wonder they keep adapting this story!
