France, 1648: Richelieu and Louis XIII are dead, the new king is a minor, and the Duc de Lavalle is in virtually open rebellion, scheming to seize power. As a last resort, Queen Anne summons the heirs of the original Musketeers to her aid…including Claire, daughter of Athos, who when she chooses can miraculously pass as a boy, and wields as fine a sword as any. All their skills will be needed for a battle against increasing odds. One for all and all for one! Written by Rod Crawford

Viewing Notes
Brisk sword play adventure with Cornel Wilde leading the charge to prevent the princess from an unwanted marriage. A new set of musketeers forms to save the day. Good balance of action and humor. Maureen O’Hara is terrific.
