It is the winter of 1837. The fates of two men become intertwined by their affection for the same woman. One of them, Alexander, is a poet. The other is a French Baron named George d'Anthes. The choices they make are complicated by the appearance of a sinister and mysterious stranger. "We are wandering in a maze where the only exit has been bricked up" - in a dark court corridor a silent whisper can be heard. Trapped in court intrigues, the men are forced into a duel of honor.
Reviews
So much average
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
