A young firebrand learns the hard way about the practical problems behind political assassination in this lavish period comedy. In 1814, with his reputation in tatters and his rule of France come to an inglorious end, Napoleon Bonaparte (Daniel Auteuil) flees to the Island of Elba, where his arrival causes no small stir among the citizens. However, not everyone is pleased with his presence; Martino (Elio Germano) is a young and idealistic schoolteacher who believes Napoleon turned his back on

Napoleon and Me is always lively and often charming.
Pleasant but ultimately slight costumer is generating good local press, though non-Italo auds will lose much of the heavily accented wordplay.
May well be the best zany Napoleonic-era romantic comedy costume drama ever.
Germano's superb performance holds the film's two different story strands together, making N an uneven but worthwhile film rather than a confusing mix of genres.
