Information
------------------------------
In 1795, he was an unpaid general consumed with ambition. In 1816, he was a bitter exile on the remote island of St. Helena. In the years between, he was the most powerful man on earth.
From the campaign that transformed the Corsican outsider into a French hero to his bitter, final defeat at Waterloo, NAPOLEON charts the course of the man who defied centuries of tradition and forced his will upon a continent. Adapted by Didier Decoin (Les Miserables, Jakob the Liar) from French historian Max Gallo's bestselling novel, this epic French/Canadian/UK/German/Austrian/Italian co-production explores the private struggles, political intrigues and bloody battles that marked Napoleon's tempestuous rise and rule.
Trapped on Saint Helena, Napoleon Bonaparte (Christian Clavier) looks back on his life in 1816. He tells the young English woman Betsy Balcombe (Tamsin Egerton-Dick) about his victory against the English and Austrians, about his foreign minister Charles Talleyrand (John Malkovich) and his police minister Joseph Fouche (Gerard Depardieu), his campaign against Egypt because he needed money to buy his wife Josephine (Isabella Rossellini) a pretty country estate, from his sister Caroline (Marie Baumer) and her fiance Marshal Joachim Murat (Claudio Amendola) and from his election as First Consul.
Elaborate film epic in which Napoleon's life almost prematurely ended: The main financier was Kirch Media, whose bankruptcy occurred during production, which meant that parts 3 and 4 were temporarily in jeopardy. The feature-length episodes aired in Primetime.
Directed by Yves Simoneau (Nuremburg, Amelia Earhart), NAPOLEON boasts an extraordinary international cast featuring Christian Clavier, Isabella Rossellini, Gerard Depardieu and John Malkovich.
