Sharpe (TV series)
Sharpe (TV series) (1992)

Origin United-kingdom
Themes Political films, Napoleonic Wars films, French Revolution films
Actors Sean Bean, Daragh O'Malley

At the beginning of the series, Richard Sharpe (Sean Bean) is a sergeant in the 95th Rifles serving in Portugal in 1809. When he singlehandedly saves the life of General Sir Arthur Wellesley (David Troughton in the first two films, then Hugh Fraser for the following films) from a group of French cavalrymen, Wellesley gives Sharpe a battlefield commission, appointing him a lieutenant. Sharpe is placed in charge of a detachment of the 95th Rifles: The term used for his men, 'chosen men' reflected the men's acknowledgment of marksmanship performance, rather than rank; it granted some privileges (such as avoiding certain routine duties) to the 'chosen men'. Patrick Harper (Daragh O'Malley) eventually becomes his best friend and is promoted to sergeant and later sergeant major.

God creates the universe. Lucifer mocks God for the shortcomings of humanity, which he predicts will soon aspire to become God. As the primaeval spirit of negation, he claims to be as old as God and demands his share of the world, which he is granted in the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Immortality.

Directed by Pierre Schoeller
Origin France
Genres Drama, Historical
Themes Politique, Political films, Histoire de France, French Revolution films, Films about royalty
Actors Gaspard Ulliel, Adèle Haenel, Olivier Gourmet, Louis Garrel, Izïa, Noémie Lvovsky

Ce film est une fresque historique qui porte sur la Révolution française, retraçant les premières années de cette période (1789-1793), en se focalisant notamment sur le rôle et la perception par ses contemporains du roi Louis XVI dans les tumultes qui secouent la France et qui amènent la fin de la société d'Ancien Régime. Le film donne à voir des figures historiques marquantes de ce moment, comme Robespierre, Marat, Desmoulins ou encore Danton, dans des séculaires États Généraux qui se muent en une toute jeune Assemblée nationale avant de se transformer en une révolutionnaire Assemblée constituante.

Élu en août 1792 à la Convention, il y retrouve Robespierre et la Montagne, et ses talents d’orateur et d’homme politique sont vite remarqués, par la gauche comme par la droite.
