You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.89.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪L235‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 18:20, 24 March 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''''The Man in the Iron Mask''''' is a 1977 [[television film]] loosely adapted from the 1847–1850 novel ''[[The Vicomte de Bragelonne]]'' by [[Alexandre Dumas]] and presenting several plot similarities with the [[The Man in the Iron Mask (1939 film)|1939 film version]]. It was produced by Norman Rosemont for [[ITC Entertainment]], and starred [[Richard Chamberlain (actor)|Richard Chamberlain]] as [[Louis XIV of France|King Louis XIV]] and his twin Philippe, [[Patrick McGoohan]] as [[Nicolas Fouquet]], [[Ralph Richardson]] as [[Jean-Baptiste Colbert]], [[Louis Jourdan]] as [[D'Artagnan]], and [[Ian Holm]] as the Chevalier Duval.  [[Jenny Agutter]] plays Louis XIV's mistress, [[Louise de la Vallière]]. [[Vivien Merchant]] appears as [[Maria Theresa of Spain|Queen Marie-Therese]].  It was directed by [[Mike Newell (director)|Mike Newell]].

==Plot==

In this version, the twins' ages are swapped. Philippe is the firstborn and rightful king, who had been spirited away at birth and raised with no knowledge of his true identity in a plot by [[Cardinal Mazarin]] to manipulate Louis before his own death. Colbert and D'Artagnan plot to replace Louis (who is an ineffective king more interested in dancing and pleasure than the welfare of France) with Philippe, and in the process bring down the corrupt finance minister Fouquet, who has [[Embezzlement|embezzled]] from the national treasury. Louis is repulsed by his own wife and makes repeated advances on Louise, who is in turn repulsed by him yet falls in love with Philippe.

==Cast==

* [[Richard Chamberlain]] as [[Louis XIV of France|King Louis XIV]]/Philippe
* [[Jenny Agutter]] as [[Louise de La Vallière]], Louis XIV's mistress
* [[Patrick McGoohan]] as [[Nicolas Fouquet]]
* [[Ralph Richardson]] as [[Jean-Baptiste Colbert]]
* [[Louis Jourdan]] as [[D'Artagnan]]
* [[Ian Holm]] as the Chevalier Duval
* [[Hugh Fraser (actor)|Hugh Fraser]] as Montfleury
* [[Brenda Bruce]] as [[Anne of Austria|Queen Anne of Austria]]
* [[Vivien Merchant]] as [[Maria Theresa of Spain|Queen Marie-Therese]]

==Production==
Although a made-for-TV movie, actual locations in France were used for filming, including the [[Château de Fontainebleau]] and Fouquet's actual chateau of [[Vaux-le-Vicomte]] for the final ball scene.
