Here is part one, and François Civil stars as D’Artagnan, the 17th-century hopeful who journeys up from the provinces to Paris, yearning to be one of the elite King’s Musketeers.
A high-gloss French costume movie, it will have devotees of the Netflix talent-agency sitcom Call My Agent! wondering which of that show’s characters are representing which star it appears to split its two feature-episodes in roughly the place that Richard Lester and screenwriter George Macdonald Fraser divided their Three and Four Musketeers in the 1970s.
