Ahhh, The Count of Monte Cristo, one of the classics! You'll be riveted once they arrest kind hearted acting captain Edmund Dantes on false grounds that rips him away from his next day bride-to-be Mercedes, and into a 14-year prison sentence to a pit of Hell. Of course jealous johnny-on-the-spot Ferdinand Mondégo takes very good care of grief-stricken Mercedes...until an incredibly wealthy count arises from the ashes of Edmund Dantes to exact precise, but poetic, revenge on the culprits. More than deserving of their just desserts, it was bittersweet for the Count as his commitment to revenge was definitely served on a heart-breakingly cold plate of the lost love of Mercedes.
