Summary:
"The 18th-century novel that inspired the opera Manon Lescaut comes to the screen starring John Barrymore as an aspiring priest who abandons his calling for the lovely Manon and confronts rivals that include King Louis XV ... a tempestuous storyline of swordplay, breathless pursuits, boisterous crows and mutiny at sea"--Container.
