Editorial Review: Amazon.com: It's tough trying to beat the 1934 version of the popular adventure-romance story, starring Leslie Howard as the 18th-century British hero who poses as a fop in London society but runs a secret mission to rescue the doomed in Robespierre's Paris. But this 1982 television version, starring Anthony Andrews (Under the Volcano) as the Pimpernel and Jane Seymour as his beloved but estranged wife, is quite a treat. Andrews and Seymour expertly capture the essence of a relationship suffering from misunderstandings and elusive passion, and there is plenty of crackle to the action sequences. Clive Donner (What's New, Pussycat?) brings some strong cinematic qualities to this television presentation. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - ClassicIf you like Jane Austin or period romance pieces you will love this movie. I do! It is difficult to find though. No digital enhancements or green screen filming, simply good acting with a good story line. Rating: - Great film!I really loved this movie! It is a great classic tale with classic humor. It is fabulous! Probably my all time favorite movie. Definitely a great family film. Rating: - Great movieThis is a great movie. I watched probably 30 times as a kid and had lots of lines by Sir Percival Blakeney memorized. "Sink me! Your tailors have betrayed you!" Rating: - The best PimpernelI think this Anthony Andrews/Jane Seymour version is superior even to the Leslie Howard Merle Oberon version. In addition to Anthony Andrews skill in his various disguises, he also shows an athleticism that is lacking in the Leslie Howard version. The plot of the Jane Seymour/Anthony Andrews version is more complex than the Leslie Howard version with the addition of King Louis son. It has to be one of the most entertaining period movies around. Rating: - Great Movie! Great Service!We love this story, and have seen the old movie and the new musical version. This is our favorite movie version. The lead does a great job - playing the fool, and the hero! We recommend it for families - decent, exciting, suspenseful, romantic, and educational, - all while being so entertaining! Browse for similar items by category: |
