	DVD Times - La Reine Margot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Unlike Shekah Kapur’s Elizabeth, La Reine Margot does not simplify or pigeonhole its characters into the traditional archetypes of the genre: Margot is impulsive, promiscuous and politically blunt — quite the opposite of the measured wisdom and virtuousness that Elizabeth tried to forcefully imbue in its eponymous monarch.
		Margot soon finds herself in a vulnerable position at court, the suspicion being that she is a treacherous liability; her royal heritage offering little protection from the perception that she is a protestant sympathiser.
		Anjou berates Margot for her liaisons with La Mole, Catherine attempts to silence him ("Not in public!") but Anjou hits his sister and the next moment we appear to be in a different room where the brothers are manhandling Margot as though they intend to rape her.

		La Mole was not protestant, though he was a political ally of Margot and Henri (as well as being Margot's lover) with the same results shown in the film.

		Margot and Henry are heroic in stature, yet plagued by ambiguities and character flaws that both humanise and endear them.
		But it is the youth of the people that caught me by surprise; Margot is 20, Henry of Navarre is 19, Charles XI is 22 and Catherine de Medicis, portrayed as a crone, is only 54, yet managed to produce ten children for her husband, Henry II, prior to his death.
		La Reine Margot was original published in serial format between 1844 and 1845 — that's a quarter of a million words over a three month period.

		La fièvre érotique tient lieu d'amour, la ruse, l'intérêt et la peur dictent les intrigues.
		La Reine Margot wasn't nearly as good as The Count of Monte Cristo (if you have not read this, it is definitely a page turner!), but it was a good story that gives a little insight into history while livening it up with Dumas's sword-fighting, heroic style.
		The characters are vibrant (especially Margot, which is something of a surprise because Dumas' female characters are not as often sympathetic as are his male characters); the plot is intricate; and the adventure and emotion run high.

	Movie Reviews by Edwin Jahiel
		The main romance is between Margot and Protestant Count de la Mole (Vincent Perez, the handsome but dim Christian in "Cyrano de Bergerac").
		Margot not only had lovers, but is often described in French history books as a nymphomaniac.
		The film makes no bones about it, also hints broadly at incest between Catherine and her beloved sons, is verbally explicit about Margot and her brothers, and shows that at the Court sex was as casual as in the singles bars, pre-AIDS scene.

	EUFS: La Reine Margot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		La Reine Margot is a sumptuous sexy swashbuckler of a film with royal antics that make the House of Windsor look like The Brady Bunch in comparison.
		Meanwhile Margot's delightful mother Catherine de Medici does the ultimate mother-in-law act and orders the murder of all Henri of Navarre's friends and half of Paris while she is about it prompting the Protestants to be none to chuffed: cue more fighting.
		Isabelle Adjani is also very good as Margot getting a tad fed up of being her brothers' mistress and diplomatic tool and desperately trying to achieve her own happiness.

	La Reine Margot
		In an attempt to bring peace to the country, the king's sister Margot is married to the Protestant leader Henri de Navarre.
		What is more, as the film's sets, costumes, and depictions of the distinctive values and behaviors of a bygone age bring that time to life, they enhance the director's ability to involve the viewer with the struggles and concerns of his often genuinely intriguing characters.
		Consequently, while neither Margot nor Henri, with whom the narrative is primarily concerned, is a particularly sympathetic character, both are such fascinating and carefully crafted individuals and inhabit such a remarkably well realized universe that they are able to captivate the viewer.

		Ostensibly to settle decades of enmity between Protestants and Catholics, King Charles IX of France agrees to marry his sister Margot to the Huguenot prince Henri de Navarre.
		Forty years before Patrice Chéreau made his controversial and critically acclaimed La Reine Margot, with Isabelle Adjani playing the title role, Jean Dréville made a film which tells the same story.
		In spite of these deficiencies, La Reine Margot is generally a well-made production, with sets and costumes which give a convincing portrayal of late 16th century France.
