PLOT:
Alain Delon stars as twin brothers in Christian-Jaque's film based on a novel from Alexandre Dumas. Set in 18th century France during rumblings of revolution, Guillaume De Saint-Preux is the legendary Black Tulip, battling for the people against the monarchy. In reality, he is not much more than a self-serving thief who steals from the rich in the name of the people, but keeps it for himself rather than giving to those in need. After his face is scarred to mark him as a bandit, he enlists the aid of his identical twin, Julien, to carry on his work. Unfortunately for him, Julien is a revolutionary at heart and the ensuing events are nowhere close to Guillaume's expectations.

by bajenaghe naghi on Mon Oct 05, 2009 01:58 PM PDTI have been thinking about this movie since i read your blog this morning. The name seems very familiar to me and I am sure i saw this movie back in Iran. And the reason that the name seems so familiar to me after so many years may be that i must have loved this movie when I saw it in '64 or '65. Thank you for bringing back good memories.
