		The Man in the Iron Mask by Alexandre Dumas.
		Alexandre Dumas was already a best-selling novelist when he wrote this historical romance, combining (as he claimed) the two essentials of life--"l'action et l'amour." The Man in the Iron Mask climactically concludes the epic adventures of the three Musketeers: here, Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and their friend D'Artagnan, once invincible, meet their destinies.

	The Man in the Iron Mask:The Holistic Treatment of Men's Diseases
		Iron is also a component of certain enzyme systems where its ability to change easily from a 2+ to a 3+ valence allows for the transference of oxygen in the cellular respiratory cycle.
		Thus, the metal associated with clanking armor and impassible barriers (the iron mask, the iron curtain) is the very metal that allows oxygen to be transported in the body and used by the cells.
		Zinc's opposition to iron most clearly reveals itself in the fact that while iron may be called the central element of the red blood cells, zinc has an analogous role in the white blood cells, the cells that mediate our immune function.

	Willamette Week - Movie Review: The Man in the Iron Mask - March 18, 1998
		The Man in the Iron Mask completed Alexandre Dumas' Musketeer trilogy, which was serialized in the press and immensely popular between 1844 and 1850.
		One is easily bored by the obstreperous noise of typical cinematic detonation, but it would be hard to tire of a sound that needs little FX to boost its power: the metallic cling of a sword being pulled from its sheath.
		Neither the novel's theme of the fear of shedding what simultaneously shields and torments you (the mask) nor his thrilling sequences of action (the musketeers) are present.

		Sneaking Philippe out of prison, the Musketeers remove his mask and discover, under layers of gritty matted hair, a milky-skinned waif who has known the tortures of the damned yet somehow clung to higher goodness.

		In The Man in the Iron Mask, though, all he can really do is put his best face on a swashbuckling potboiler.

		Malcovich mid-west accent and Iron's noble countenance somehow match (similar to "Dangerous Liasons" with Close and Malkovich)and Byrnes tragic/romantic/hero passes not exactly for the D'Artanian of the popular screen, his Irish accent also is another mix in the bake.
		The directing makes the most of all that is on offer (such as the musketeers charging into musket fire, elaborate chase scenes on the kidnapping of the king and the squalor of the Bastille) and the music complements each scene beautifully that it stands out.
		"Man in the Iron Mask" is overall a good film, not a landmark adaptation, but good entertainment of a better quality.

	Movie Review \| The Man in the Iron Mask (1998) Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeremy Irons
		The Man in the Iron Mask (1998) Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeremy Irons
		D'Artagnan (Gabriel Byrne) is now the King's main bodyguard; Aramis (Jeremy Irons) is a practicing priest with a secret; Porthos (Gerard Depardieu) is a drunk and womanizer; and Athos (John Malkovich) has retired from the Musketeer business and has a son, Raoul, who plans to become a Musketeer like his father.
		I don't claim to be a Dumas expert, but Wallace's "Iron Mask" has all the things that make this a "Dumas movie." There's political intrigue, backstabbing, forbidden romance, affairs, and last but certainly not least, the ever-present civil strife between the poor and the aristocracy (although this last part is mostly background noise).
