Tonight is the premier of the long-expected movie adaptation of the Alatriste novels, created by Arturo Pérez-Reverte. The plot is set in XVIIth Century’s Madrid, when the Spanish empire was beginning its decline. With Viggo Mortensen as Captain Alatriste and lots of other first-line Spanish actors and actresses in the cast, I can’t wait to see it (but I will, at least until tomorrow ;)
No queda sino batirse!
