Having rated the 1945 original a 10, I do want to advocate for this 1983 remake. The sets and costumes and numerous extras really enhance the aesthetic appeal of this period piece (set during the restoration of Charles II). Glynis Barber is cast as the sweet Caroline and she is so gorgeous as to be worth the price of admission for any cavalier. Yes it doesn't have the greatest casting for the characters of Ralph and Barbara. Faye Dunaway is a great actress but the role of Barbara was not ideal for her. However with a beauty like Glynis Barber in the movie and being such a fan of the original I still enjoyed the movie.
