The Count of Monte Cristo is a 1975 television film produced by ITC Entertainment and based upon the book The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas, père. It was directed by David Greene and starred Richard Chamberlain as Edmond Dantès, Kate Nelligan as Mercedes, Tony Curtis as Fernand Mondego, Louis Jourdan (who played Edmond Dantès in the 1961 film adaptation of the novel) as De Villefort, Donald Pleasence as Danglars, Trevor Howard as Abbé Faria, and Isabelle de Valvert as Haydee. ITC had previously produced a 39-part TV series based on the same source material, in 1956.Later it was remade in Telugu as Veta.

Plot[edit]
The film emphasizes the theme of revenge and manipulation of characters by Dantès until the final swordfight with Mondego. The courtroom scene in which Dantès brings down crown prosecutor De Villefort is a highlight of the film, as is the scene between Dantès and Mercedes when he reveals Mondego's treachery to her (which occurs almost precisely as in the novel). However, important characters are omitted and several scenes differ from the novel. Villefort's wife for instance, never appears, and there is no mention of her ever having poisoned anyone. In the novel, it is Mondego rather than Danglars who commits suicide, and Dantès and Mondego do not engage in a swordfight. As in the novel, Dantès loses Mercedes because of his vengeful bitterness. Haydee has only a minor role in the film, and there is no indication that she and Monte Cristo become lovers as in the book.

Production[edit]
The film was produced by Norman Rosemont, who originally tried to do it as a mini series but could not sell it. Instead he signed a deal with NBC to make it as a TV movie, although the film would be released theatrically in Europe. The budget was one and a half million dollars.[1]
Bell Telephone Company sponsored and Richard Chamberlain agreed to star. It was part of the Bell System Family Theatre.[2]
Rosemont remembered 'grave doubts were expressed by the networks about whether there was a mass audience for period pieces. They were in costume, there was the worry about accents and inevitably they would cost more than a period drama.'[3]
Filming took place in Rome starting in August 1974. There was location filming outside Marseilles.[4][5]
The cast included Taryn Power, the daughter of Tyrone Power and Linda Christian.
'We tried to stick as closely as possible to the novel,' said Rosemont. 'And with Chamberlain in the lead I've got to say the show worked out better than anyone could want.'[6]
Chamberlain called it 'a great story' and said he chose not to see the previous movie versions because 'I didn't want to copy even unconsciously.'[1]
Reception[edit]
The show received good ratings. Market research showed the program had good 'commercial recall' and reflected well on sponsor Bell, so they wanted more. Rosemont went on to make adaptations of The Man in the Iron Mask, Captain's Courageous and The Four Feathers.[7]
Performance awards[edit]
The film was nominated for two Emmys: Richard Chamberlain for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Special Program – Drama or Comedy,[8] and Trevor Howard for Outstanding Single Performance by a Supporting Actor in a Comedy or Drama Special.Later it was remake in Telugu Movie as Veta[9]
