Description by OLDIES.com:
Robert Clarke plays young Gascon D'Artagnan, who travels to Paris to join the king's gallant protectors. When they learn of a plot against the Queen, the stage is set for an adventure that will turn the Three Musketeers into legends. The Sword of D'Artagnan debuted on November 24, 1950 as part of The Magnavox Theatre, an early television anthology that lasted for seven episodes on CBS. This was the first hour-long film made in Hollywood specifically for television. Produced by Hal Roach, it was meant to serve as the pilot for a Three Musketeers TV series which never materialized. It instead received an overseas theatrical release as a feature. Academy Award-nominated director Budd Boetticher later teamed with Randolph Scott for a series of popular Westerns. Star Robert Clarke is known for his leading roles in sci-fi films such as The Man From Planet X (1951), The Astounding She-Monster (1957), and The Hideous Sun Demon (1959), which he also wrote and directed.
BONUS: The Count of Monte Cristo "The Art of Terror": Alexandre Dumas's other famous character, the Count of Monte Cristo, was the subject of a 1956 syndicated television series. In this episode, the Count duels with a masked madman terrorizing a seaport town. Leading man George Dolenz is best known as the father of Monkees lead singer Micky Dolenz.
