Fueled by performances as polished as its visuals, Monsieur N. is a flawed yet largely absorbing look at an imagined chapter of Napoleon's exile. Title Monsieur N. Release Year 2005 Running Time 127 min Language English Categories Foreign Films / French / Conspiracies / Conspiracy Theories / Crime / Epic / Historical / Mystery / Period Piece / Prison / Theatrical Release / Thriller Synopsis On a snowy winter's day in Paris in December 1840, a body is returned and exhumed in a large, official ceremony.

Monsieur N, Antoine de Caunes's densely plotted costume drama, suggests that Napoleon's demise might have been an elaborate hoax through which he escaped into anonymity.

It does retain some interest as to the relationship of the imprisonment of the former emperor who perhaps never considered himself to be a prisoner versus the English who most certainly did. A British officer, Lieutenant Heathcote (Jay Rodan), is the aide-de-camp to Lowe and begins to investigate the former emperor's demise. Directed by Antoine de Caunes. Jaibo, a charismatic sociopath, has just escaped from a reform school.
