Movie5.5ComedyMax and his young bride attempt to enjoy an Alpine honeymoon, despite the presence of her mother.
Movie6.5DramaThis film is not exceedingly well acted, but has the additional charm of being taken from the actual history of the man whose personality dominated the Committee of Safety in the early days of the French Revolution. It's tragic but enthralling, and full of the atmosphere of those more than troublous times of the French Revolution, when blood was shed like water and men seemed turned to beasts.
