If I
Were King (1938)(dvd)
Synopsis: A sparklingly witty
and polished historical romp, this gives plum roles to Ronald Colman as the
romantic poet and audacious rogue François Villon and to Basil Rathbone
as the wily, cackling French monarch, Louis XI, who allows Villon to save him
from losing his throne.
Preston Sturges's screenplay provides dialogue
that is a constant delight, and no one has declaimed poetry better on screen
than Colman. Frank Lloyd's direction is admirably brisk and Ellen Drew shines
as the ordinary girl who loves Villon without reservation. A rare
delight.
If I Were King is a wonderful film to have on
dvd.
