The Duchess of Avila

The Duchess of Avila (1973) is a adventure, drama, fantasy directed by Philippe Ducrest rated 9.0/10.

An epic six-hour adaptation of Potocki's The Manuscript Found in Saragossa. Most famously filmed by Wojciech Has, this four part adaptation has the advantage of a vastly expanded running time, allowing for more of the novel to be incorporated >> shot on film, it was clearly a very expensive production and is equally spectacular in its own way.
