Rochefort (Christopher Lee) speaks of his imprisonment of Constance (Raquel Welch), while D’Artagnan (Michael York) plots with his fellows (Richard Chamberlain, Oliver Reed, Frank Finlay) of how to break her out, comedy ensuing, in Richard Lester’s hit sequel The Four Musketeers, 1975.

King Louis (Jean-Pierre Cassel) counseled by Richelieu (Charlton Heston) who sends spy Rochefort (Christopher Lee) to kidnap Constance (Raquel Welch) while about domestic business with D’Artagnan (Michael York), Milady (Faye Dunaway) conspiring, in the sequel, The Four Musketeers, 1975.

As artful and mysterious as any scene in The Three Musketeers (1973) or this sequel, Athos (Oliver Reed) recalls for D’Artagnan (Michael York) a love of perhaps his own, who seems to be the generally evil Milady (Faye Dunaway), Richard Lester directing, in The Four Musketeers, 1975.
