Alexandre Dumas' THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO follows the adventures of Edmond Dantès (Gérard Depardieu), a 19th-century French version of James Bond or Batman, a rich, ruthless, and suave purveyor of homemade justice.

The movie was filmed all over Europe, has a cast of thousands where even the extras are big names, and, with an original running time of more than six hours, doesn't leave out any detail from the celebrated novel.
