King Louis XIII of France is thrilled to have born to him a son - an heir to the throne. But when the queen delivers a twin, Cardinal Richelieu sees the second son as a potential for revolution, and has him sent off to Spain to be raised in secret to ensure a peaceful future for France. Alas, keeping the secret means sending Constance, lover of D'Artagnan, off to a convent. D'Artagnan hears of this and rallies the Musketeers in a bid to rescue her. Unfortunately, Richelieu out-smarts the Musketeers and banishes them forever. Richelieu enlists D'Artagnan to look after and protect the young prince. Meanwhile, de Rochefort learns of the twins and Richelieu's plans, and kidnaps the twin, raising him in secret. Many years later, with Richelieu dead and the young prince crowned King Louis XIV, Rochefort launches his plan. The king is kidnapped, replaced with his twin, put in an iron mask so as not to be recognized...
IMDB
The Iron Mask, rich in breathtaking swordfights, carefree merriment, and suspense, is one of Douglas Fairbanks, Sr.'s masterpieces. The story of the four musketeers, gentle Athos, jolly Porthos, brave Aramis, and fearless, outgoing D'Artagnan, goes on in this tale of twin heirs and the unscrupulous Count de Rochefort who switches them to obtain his own ends. The movie begins as the Queen gives birth to a crown Prince of France. Everybody rejoices over the heir, and nobody suspects that there are actually two! Cardinal Richelieu (played by the aging Nigel de Brulier) tells no one of the birth of the second child and sends the twin away to the Spanish border, but Count de Rochefort (Ulrich Haupt) entangles himself in this plan and eventually switches the twins so that he may make himself the most powerful man in France.
Fairbanks, who aged remarkably well over the course of his life and is as dashing and handsome as ever in this film, plays an energetic and athletic D'Artagnan who serves his King to the point of death. Marguerite de la Motte returns as Constance, D'Artagnan's lover who is tragically murdered by the criminal Milady de Winter. The movie is excellent and portrays Fairbanks's skill at fencing most accurately. One of his best!
