WWTD 062 - The Three Musketeers: Mild Sensuality

Loyal D Lovers know that sometimes things can get a little
risqué here on We Want The D. This week, we swear it isn't our
fault. Because you can Disney-fy Alexandre Dumas' swashbuckling
story of intrigue, romance, and betrayal all you want, there'll
still be way more sexy than your typical Disney movie. But boy did
they ever try to sap as much of it out as they could. Why else
would they cast Oliver Platt as one of the musketeers, even at his
most svelt? Why else pair Rebecca De Mornay is the world's tightest
corset with the lean, grade eleven gym class body of Chris
O'Donnell? Why, oh god why, make Tim Curry give the most creepy and
lecherous performance ever as Cardinal Richelieu? He creeps on a
young woman in a bath! Add in totally wooden performances from
Charlie Sheen and Kiefer Sutherland on the wane from their 80s
hayday, and you have to wonder what was going on at Disney when
they decided to adapt THE THREE MUSKETEERS.
