Monsieur Beaucaire - BLU-RAY

It is France, during the 18th century. The court of King Louis XV of France is home to many intrigues. The Duke of Chartres is betrothed to Princess Henriette, but she sees him as little more than a mincing fop. Tiring of her insults, he escapes from their wedding to England, where he disguises himself as a commoner. Using the name "Monsieur Beaucaire" he takes a job as the French Ambassador's barber. Despite enjoying his new low status

In the gender-bender comedy InchBeverly of GraustarkInch (1926), Marion Davies is an American co-ed whose cousin Oscar (Creighton Hale) is a Prince and heir to the throne of Graustark. In a twist of fate, she must switch places with him in order to prevent the conniving General Marlanax (Roy D'Arcy) from becoming King. Along the way, Beverly (as Oscar) meets goat-herd Dantan (Antonio Moreno), hires him as her bodyguard... and winds up falling for him. There are mistaken identities, intrigue, clothing swaps, a chase, a swordfight and more - and in the end Beverly winds up with the goat-herd, cousin Oscar becomes the new King, and there's a big fancy ball. •• Marking a stylistic shift from Marion Davies' earlier features, InchBeverly of GraustarkInch - ably directed by Sidney Franklin - is more akin to her 1928 rom-coms InchShow PeopleInch and InchThe PatsyInch (both 1928). •• InchBeverly of GraustarkInch is presented here in a brand new 4K restoration by the Library of Congress from archival 35mm elements, and includes the film's original 2-color Technicolor ending. New musical score composed and performed on theatre organ by Ben Model. Blu-ray is NTSC, Region-free.
