The Three Musketeers: after D’Artagnan, Milady
Eight months after leaving Charles D’Artagnan (François Civil) in very poor condition at the end of the first part of the diptych of Three Musketeerswe finally discover the sequence of events in the following, Miladyin theaters from December 13th. In this second film based on the work of Alexandre Dumas, D’Artagnan is ready to do anything to find the person of his heart again, Constance Bonacieux (Lyna Khoudri), kidnapped by Milady de Winter (Eva Green). It is the latter at the center of this new feature film, again directed by Martin Bourboulon. If in the first she was the archetype of the manipulative femme fatale, in this second work she becomes more human and allows us to glimpse the reasons that pushed her to become this unscrupulous woman.
One of the most impressive sequences of The Three Musketeers: Milady it is undoubtedly the headquarters of La Rochelle. In fact, King Louis XIII (Louis Garrel) decides to lock down the city which is home to the Protestants, who attempted to assassinate the king.
Where was the siege of La Rochelle filmed?
In an interview given to France Blue, director Martin Bourboulon revealed the secrets of filming this second part, and in particular the shots of the sequence of the siege of La Rochelle. Contrary to what you might think, this part was not filmed in the Charente-Maritime city, but in Saint-Malo:
We said to ourselves that what would most resemble the 17th century siege of La Rochelle would ultimately be Saint-Malo with its ramparts and towers. The city of La Rochelle itself wasn’t necessarily the easiest thing to shoot in these sequences. And we all fell in love with Saint-Malo because we were able to say so, of what already exists of the royal decor of Saint-Malo, of the port and what we can do with it, of the ideas that we will reconstruct After the siege of La Rochelle, for bringing these important towers of La Rochelle back to life, we found that Saint-Malo was truly the ideal location.
said Martin Bourboulon.
