The 1935 version of A Tale of Two Cities with Ron Colman is the best. In fact, I recommend it and it costs only $3 to rent it on Amazon. I don’t know about Count since I never read the book. I did love Gerard Depardeau but who doesn’t. I didn’t like the non musical movie version. I am looking forward to seeing this version. I’m happy that they even have the priest/bishop in it and it sounds like they have him in the sewers for awhile. Those are my two favorite parts. I really despise Marais. What a despicable and shallow human being.
I envy people who haven’t read The Count of Monte Cristo or Atlas Shrugged...because they still get to for the first time.
