Quatre-vingt-treize is a French silent film adapted by Alexandre Arnoux based on the novel Ninety-Three by Victor Hugo. Originally undertaken as a follow-up to his great success with Les misérables (1913), director Albert Capellani began the project in the spring and summer of 1914, but the war interrupted shooting and Capellani left France for the United States, never to return until 1923. In 1916 André Antoine with Assistant Director Julien Duvivier shot additional footage, and then production was banned for the duration of the war. In 1921 Antoine edited the film, and it was shown that year in two parts.
In 1985 Philippe Esnault, under the auspices of the Cinémathèque française, restored the film from scattered parts to a 170 minute run time.
