Henri 4 is a 2010 drama film directed by Jo Baier. It is a German-French-Austrian-Spanish co-production.

Synopsis

France, 1563. Protestants et catholiques se livrent une lutte sans merci pour la terre et le pouvoir. Henri IV a pris la tête des protestants et marche sur Paris, prêt à en découdre avec les catholiques et notamment avec la rivale de sa mère : la puissante Catherine de Médicis. La réconciliation entre les deux clans semble à portée de main, lorsque la Reine offre sa fille Margot en mariage. Les noces tournent au bain de sang... Henri ne survit au massacre de la Saint-Barthélémy que pour être fait prisonnier. Incarcéré au Louvre, il y passe 4 ans avant de pouvoir s'échapper. Il passera le reste de sa vie à s'opposer par tous les moyens dont il dispose à ceux qui n'ont ni sens moral ni humanisme. Pour y parvenir, il n'hésitera pas à changer de religion. Les épreuves qui jalonnent son accession au trône façonneront le monarque qu'il devint : le premier vrai humaniste.

Pan Tadeusz is told in flashbacks as the author, Adam Mickiewicz, reads his work to a group of elderly exiles in Paris. The story takes place over the course of five days in 1811 and one day in 1812 in rolling landscapes of Lithuania inhabited by Poles whose homeland has been recently partitioned among Russia, the Austrian Empire and Prussia. Not far off in history looms Napoleon's invasion of Russia, the prospect of which heartens Poles yearning for liberation. But more immediately, the characters in Pan Tadeusz are feuding among themselves.

The humane Captain Crawford (Guinness) is in command of the warship HMS Defiant during the French Revolutionary Wars. He soon finds himself in a battle of wills with his first officer, the sadistic and supercilious first lieutenant, Mr. Scott-Padget (Bogarde). The Lieutenant believes that Crawford is too soft on his crew, and also disagrees with the captain's decision to proceed with orders to sail to Corsica despite word that Napoleon has overrun much of Italy. Scott-Padget has powerful family connections, which he has used in the past to "beach" two previous commanding officers with whom he disagreed. Knowing that Crawford is helpless to intervene, Scott-Padget subjects the former's son, Midshipman Harvey Crawford (David Robinson), to excessive daily punishments so as to gain leverage over the captain.

Les événements relatés dans les deux parties de La Révolution française sont nombreux. Les producteurs ont voulu relever le défi inédit de couvrir l’ensemble de la période révolutionnaire et donc tous ses principaux événements (ce qui en fait d'ailleurs un film pédagogique malgré son parti pris clairement dantoniste). L'œuvre passe cependant très vite sur la guerre de Vendée, qui n’est mentionnée que quatre fois, notamment par Robespierre et Desmoulins, qui dénonce le massacre d’ « un peuple entier ». Le film se termine sur l’exécution de Robespierre et Saint-Just en 1794 et omet d'évoquer la suite des événements. Toutefois, la Révolution française s'étend jusqu'en 1799, année du coup d'État de Napoléon Bonaparte.
