Angelique and the King backdrop

Angelique and the King 1966 Directed by Bernard Borderie Angélique et le Roy

The dazzling mistress of rogues and royalty gambles her beauty for the favor of the most elegant Libertine in all of France - Louis XIV himself.

Soon after her latest husband death, the King himself (Louis XIV) meets with our heroine and begs her to help convince the Persian Ambassador to agree to a treaty. However, what they didn't realize was that the handsome Persian was in fact a sexual sadist. So, it is up to the King's half- brother, some Hungarian prince, to save Angélique from the evil troll's clutches.
