Dumas is one of my favorite writers and I didn't know about him having a collaborator. Seeing Gerard Depardieu is a bit weired but I guess it might be fitting too. Will probably watch this eventually if I ever get the chance to see it in German/English. Je ne parlez pas francais... wow, I learned something new today.

It feels so strange to see Depardieu, who was wonderful as the Comte de Monte Cristo, now play Dumas himself! I saw the previews and this is something I will see in the coming weeks.
