For those who have not read the books, second movie of the Angelique story could be a confusing one. I admit I would have been: so many things are going on, one after another and one could easily lost track of the time hat has passed between each of them. Fortunately there is help provided, at least at one time, where one could see what year is. They could have easily make two movies out of this one to show gradually and slowly how all came to be but, I guess, that was out of the question. :) But don't let that keep you away away from watching it :). One thing that has not change, from my point of view, from the first movie is acting of Michele aka Angelique; in certain scenes she gets it right, but in others she can not produce intensity, determination of Angelique from the books. But her beauty makes up for everything :) I love Rochefort as Desgrez, he is just awesome and that is how I have imagined him to be. In lees than an hour, third movies will be on TV. Can't wait! :)
