This two-disc package features
Richard Lester's
madcap 1974 adaptation of
Alexandre Dumas' most famous story, as well as its equally acclaimed sequel. Both
The Three Musketeers and
The Four Musketeers have been given two transfers to disc for this set, one letterboxed at the widescreen aspect ratio of 1.77:1 and the other panned and scanned at the full-frame ratio of 1.33:1. The audio for both pictures is mastered in Dolby Digital Mono; the dialogue is in English, with no multiple language options. Bonus materials include a two-part
documentary, "The Saga of the Musketeers," and a seven-minute promotional film on the making of
The Three Musketeers. Also featured are trailers, television spots, radio commercials, biographies of the cast and leading crew members, and a gallery of production photos.
