Por la dama y el honor (1935)
El joven y valeroso D’Artagnan llega a París y busca a su padrino, el capitán de Treville, jefe del cuerpo de los mosqueteros del rey Luis XIII (1610-1643), en el que quiere ingresar. Allí conoce a Aramis, Porthos y Athos, tres prodigiosos espadachines, a los que, no obstante, D’Artagnan no duda en retar a un duelo. Pero, para ganarse el respeto de los mosqueteros, el joven tendrá que enfrentarse a los malvados sicarios del cardenal Richelieu, enemigo mortal de la Corona. Defendiendo la causa de la reina Ana de Austria, esposa de Luis XIII, se enamora de Constance, la hermosa dama de compañía de la Reina. Esta fue la primera versión sonora sobre la novela de Dumas. Con un dinámico guión de Dudley Nichols, la trama sigue fielmente la novela original, destacando las peleas a espada y la aparición de Margot Grahame como Milady De Winter.
