Secrets d'Histoire - Cardinal de Richelieu : le ciel peut attendre
Détesté de son vivant, le cardinal-duc de Richelieu fut un grand homme. Ce petit marquis de province, hissé au rang de ministre incontournable, est l'inventeur de l'Etat moderne. « Sa pourpre est faite de gouttes de sang », a écrit Victor Hugo. Dans « les Trois Mousquetaires », Alexandre Dumas le voit comme un machiavel en soutane. Mais s'il se montra implacable envers ses ennemis, Richelieu sut poursuivre ses desseins avec une clairvoyance et une fermeté exemplaire dans l'intérêt de la France et d'un roi qu'il servit fidèlement : Louis XIII.
Cadet d'une famille qui ne roulait pas sur l'or, Armand Jean Du Plessis était destiné à la carrière des armes. Il reçut l'éducation d'un gentilhomme et eut pour maître Antoine de Pluvinel, qui posa les bases de l'équitation à la française. « En lui a...

On 4 August 1627 a royal French army, 11’000 strong, arrived at the Huguenot town of La Rochelle. Their arrival marked the beginning of a siege characterized by an impregnable fortress, extremely determined commanders and ingenious siege craft, manifesting above all in a 1.5 km long sea-wall, a construction seemingly impossible at its time. La Rochelle was one of the major strongholds of the Huguenots, the French Protestants, and the siege marked the climax of the reformatory struggle in France. It was the centerpiece of both the third Huguenot rebellion and the Anglo-French war of 1627-29. This is how modern historio...

Richelieu quickly rose in importance, in both the Catholic Church and in the French government, as he became a Cardinal in 1622, and the Prime Minister of Louis XIII in 1624. He was succeeded by Cardinal Jules Mazarin.
Cardinal De Richelieu is considered the world's first prime minister, in the modern sense of the word. He wanted to strengthen royal power, and by restricting the power of the nobility, he transformed France into a strong, centralized state.
His main foreign policy goals were to curb the power of the Austrian House of Habsburg and to defend France’s interests in the Thirty Years' War. Although he was a cardinal, he did not hesitate to enter into alliances with Protestant rulers in order to achieve his goals.
Richelieu is one of the main characters in Alexandre Dumas’ novel The Three Musketeers, in which he is portrayed as the antagonist even more powerful than the king, but history recognizes that the Cardinal’s power was in fact very dependent on the trust that the king placed in him.

Détesté de son vivant, le cardinal-duc de Richelieu fut un grand homme. Ce petit marquis de province, hissé au rang de ministre incontournable, est l'inventeur de l'Etat moderne. « Sa pourpre est faite de gouttes de sang », a écrit Victor Hugo. Dans « les Trois Mousquetaires », Alexandre Dumas le voit comme un machiavel en soutane. Mais s'il se montra implacable envers ses ennemis, Richelieu sut poursuivre ses desseins avec une clairvoyance et une fermeté exemplaire dans l'intérêt de la France et d'un roi qu'il servit fidèlement : Louis XIII.
Cadet d'une famille qui ne roulait pas sur l'or, Armand Jean Du Plessis était destiné à la carrière des armes. Il reçut l'éducation d'un gentilhomme et eut pour maître Antoine de Pluvinel, qui posa les bases de l'équitation à la française. « En lui apprenant à dominer un cheval en employant la douceur, il le prépara à gouverner les hommes sans employer la force », nous dit Patrice Franchet d'Espèrey, écuyer du Cadre Noir de Saumur et écrivain.
La journée des Dupes, la conjuration de Saint-Marc, le siège de La Rochelle : c'est une époque turbulente. Richelieu met la noblesse au pas, lutte contre les protestants en France, s'allie avec eux à l'étranger contre la très catholique maison d'Autriche, amasse une fortune colossale, bâtit un château gigantesque, vit en concubinage avec sa nièce, fonde l'Académie française, se pique d'urbanisme, entreprend la colonisation du Canada. Un réaliste et un visionnaire, obsédé par la grandeur de la France et le service de son roi, un homme d'Etat comme on en rencontre peu.

Impressions of Disraeli (1931) | BFI National Archive
Explore Jewish Britain on Film on BFI Player (UK only): https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/collection/jewish-britain-on-film
Now here’s a curio-and-a-half… A party-political film introduced by Tory leader Stanley Baldwin, in turn introducing George Arliss in a bespoke take on his famous role. Arliss played the legendary Victorian PM on stage and twice on screen, winning an Oscar for his 1929 performance. This curious celebrity endorsement is also a study in the changing art of rhetoric between Disraeli’s and Baldwin’s eras and our own.
The Conservatives were streets ahead of all other UK political parties in embracing the film medium, through their Conservative and Unionist Films Association. It’s worth noting that the Conservative Party at the time favoured protectionist economic policies...

Now here’s a curio-and-a-half… A party-political film introduced by Tory leader Stanley Baldwin, in turn introducing George Arliss in a bespoke take on his famous role. Arliss played the legendary Victorian PM on stage and twice on screen, winning an Oscar for his 1929 performance. This curious celebrity endorsement is also a study in the changing art of rhetoric between Disraeli’s and Baldwin’s eras and our own.
The Conservatives were streets ahead of all other UK political parties in embracing the film medium, through their Conservative and Unionist Films Association. It’s worth noting that the Conservative Party at the time favoured protectionist economic policies, hence the inclusion of Disraeli speeches against unfettered free trade.

George Arliss was an English actor, author, playwright, and filmmaker who found success in the United States. He was the first British actor to win an Academy Award – which he won for his performance as Victorian-era British prime minister Benjamin Disraeli in Disraeli , as well as the earliest-born actor to win the honour.
Life and career
He was born in London and commonly listed as "George Augustus Andrews." His relatives referred to him as Uncle Gus. Arliss was educated at Harrow School. He started work in the publishing office of his father but left at age 18 to go on the stage. He began his acting career on the stage in the British provinces in 1887. By 1900, he was playing London's West End in supporting roles. He embarked for a tour of America in 1901 in Mrs. Patrick Campbell's troupe, intending to remain in the United States only for the length of the tour. Arliss stayed for twenty years, making his Broadway debut in Magda . He eventually became a star in 1908 in The Devil. Producer George Tyler commissioned Louis Napoleon Parker in 1911 to write a play specifically tailored for Arliss, and the actor toured in Disraeli for five years, eventually becoming closely identified with the 19th century British prime minister.
He began his film career with The Devil , followed by Disraeli and four other silent films. Today, only The Devil, Disraeli, $20 a Week, and The Green Goddess , based on the hit stage play in which he had starred, are known to have survived. He remade both The Green Goddess and Disraeli in sound in 1929 , converting successfully at the age of 61 from a star of the legitimate theatre, and then silent films, to sound films.
Arliss made 10 sound films exclusively for Warner Bros. under a contract that gave the star an unusual amount of creative control for the time. Curiously, his casting of actors and rewriting of scripts were privileges granted him by the studio that are not even mentioned in his contract. One of these films, The Man Who Played God , was Bette Davis's first leading role. Until the end of Davis's life, she credited Arliss for personally insisting upon her as his leading lady and giving her a chance to show her abilities. The two also co-starred in The Working Man in 1933.
Arliss built a production unit at Warners' both in front of and behind the cameras. Maude T. Howell, his stage manager, became an assistant producer and was one of the few female film executives in Hollywood at that time. After his first three films, Arliss approved John Adolfi, a capable Warners director who was open to collaboration with him, to direct each of his films. Adolfi soon was regarded as a successful director of the critically and financially acclaimed Arliss films. Arliss preferred to use the same reliable actors, such as Ivan Simpson and Charles Evans, from film to film. Arliss had an eye for discovering unknown talent, such as James Cagney, Randolph Scott and Dick Powell. Despite his extensive involvement in the planning and production of his films, Arliss claimed credit only for acting.
