Fanfan la Tulipe is a 2003 French swashbuckler comedy, a remake of famous 1952 film directed by Gérard Krawczyk and starring Vincent Perez and Penélope Cruz.
The following weapons were used in the film Fanfan la Tulipe:
Flintlock Pistols are seen in hands of Fanfan (Vincent Perez), Adeline (Penélope Cruz), Corsini (Gérald Laroche), Adjudant (Sgt. Maj.) Fier-à-Bras (Philippe Dormoy), French gendarmes and highwaymen. Several different models are used.
Charleville Flintlock Musket
Soldiers of French and several other armies are mostly armed with flintlock Charleville Muskets.
Brown Bess Flintlock Musket
French and British soldiers also carry Brown Bess Flintlock Muskets, identified by the different barrel bands and muzzle caps. In reality these guns were never adopted in France.
Cannons
Field cannons of 18th to early 19th century patterns are seen on the battlefield. These are definitely modern replicas.
