Les Trois Mousquetaires : D'Artagnan (2023) felt so right to watch after watching the Toy Story that The Three Musketeers (2011) basically is. It has great English subtitles. I loved the multilingual scene between Milady and the Duke. It's been very long since I've read the book (in Bulgarian). I wonder if it sounds so gritty in French (or in English) as the film is?

What the USA is currently doing in Venezuela looks very much like a semi-hostile takeover of one criminal organization by a more powerful one.
