Taking a Powder, 15 April 2008 



Author: wc from Earth 



Rudolph Valentino (as Philippe, aka the "Duke de Chartres") is a member of France's 18th century powder set;
he and royal cousin Bebe Daniels (as Princess Henriette) are quite a pair, but etiquette gets in the way. So, Mr.
Valentino leaves the court of Lowell Sherman (as King Louis XV) and Lois Wilson (as Queen Marie); and, he relocates to
Bath, England. There, he assumes the identity of ordinary barber "Monsieur Beaucaire". Valentino enjoys life
as a commoner; nonetheless, he quickly assumes the role of a French nobleman, in order to romance Doris Kenyon (as Lady
Mary). Eventually, he realizes there's no place like home… 



After a two year strike, Rudolph Valentino made "Monsieur Beaucaire" his comeback film. It's an elaborate,
confusing, and mannered production. Nevertheless, in Valentino's case, absence did make the hearts of America grow
fonder; and, Valentino spent the next two years as the USA's top male Box Office Star. Probably, the position was
enhanced due to the continued circulation of the star's previous hits.



Monsieur Beaucaire is a valiant failure. Staid, light and shadow direction by Sidney Olcott, daintily made-up and
costumed players, and elaborately designed scenes are featured. The story of a royal assuming the commoner's role is
interesting; but, despite the title, Valentino is only briefly seen in the entertaining role of barber. Possibly, the
film's focus was lost during the making.



One of Valentino's 1923 song recordings was added to the soundtrack; listen for it when the star sings a serenade, near
the film's beginning. A record wasn't released until later, but the song is chronologically correct, herein;
thematically, the Valentino recordings more closely fit other films, however. This recording, and Valentino's successful
American tour, suggested a Garbo-like success in talking films was possible, had Valentino lived into the sound era.

Merits inclusion upon any list as a superior film, 29 March 2001



Author: rs from Mountain Mesa, California



Rarely in cinema history has a film provided as much controlled energy as this Rudolph Valentino vehicle, based upon
what is probably Booth Tarkington's weakest novel, proving its superiority to most silent works of its time owing to a
virtually flawless and lavish production and an intelligent and very witty screenplay. Valentino sings (on the sound
track), he dances, he duels, he romances, in this the apogee of his comedic period, and proves to be an authentic
cinematic force to conjure with, ably supported throughout the proceedings by an excellent cast and a production
department which outdoes itself. The sharp cinematographic landscape presented by director Sidney Olcutt of court
intrigue and mores in mid-18th century Paris, London and Bath presents a pleasant flavour of a period when good taste
and etiquette overwhelmed the dolors which emerged from the conflicts periodically savaging both France and England. 



I Think Valentino played a difficult role very well, 7 November 2005



Author: Rts from United States



This period story is realistic in its courtly manners, affectations, and bizarre make up. Like it or not, that's the way
it was. All the men look like fops, but hopefully we do not believe all men in those days were ladylike!! Let us give
Rudolph Valentino the praise he deserves in making a difficult role believable. He did an admirable job, and it had to
have been uncomfortable and a worry-some role to play given the constant attacks on his masculinity. It took guts. He
seemed to be playing some scenes "tougue in cheek" and he smiled throughout. The settings are wonderful, but
the story seems bogged down.



Certainly the director could have led the story/play by Booth Tarkington through better contrived scenes where the
actors portrayed more interesting situations. Often, they stood in position as if asking "What comes next"
They may have well just butted their heads together. It was out of whack in a way hard to describe.



Might another director pulled it off? Maybe. Nazamova knew how to weave a story before your eyes. (I am thinking of
Camille) I feel the male actors held up their end of the action. The women were insipid. Valentino was very good. Three
cheers, he brought it off. I liked the movie despite my criticism.
