When Albert watches Hydee sing and play the guitar, it’s very obvious that he doesn’t even touch the strings half the time.
Well, it’s a great piece of cinema, the actors perform well, the scenes are well-crafted, and the music is top-notch
However, for someone who’s read the book before, much of the actual story is not only missing but heavily modified.
Some of the original characters are missing and are grouped into one new character (Angelel)
This is frustrating and the main reason it’s an 8 and not a 10, but I guess bringing a 6-book story into a 3-hour movement isn’t that easy.
The 3 hours feel like 20 minutes, with good romance, fantastic costumes, great action scenes and drama
So, if you are not a fan of Dumas, go see it, you will have a good time!
