Well, I've seen them all...but the one I was referring to was the 
1982 one with Anthony Andrews and Jane Seymour...Andrews plays Sir 
Percy and has the most magnificent costumes...not frilly at all..one 
is white velvet......Ian McKellan plays Chauvelin...

There is some absolutely wonderful dialogue between Marguerite and 
Sir Percy about love.....(I want you to tell me everything about 
yourself. But slowly. Very slowly. So it takes a very, very long 
time).

Another wonderful movie is Kenneth Branagh's remake about Much Ado 
About Nothing......check it out......
