The Three Musketeers (1993) — All for Love, None for Us

Hello new name!! This week on VHS Therapy, Mary and Teddy sharpen their swords (and their side-eye) for Disney’s 1993 The Three Musketeers. Once upon a time, we swooned over dreamy Chris O’Donnell and thought swashbuckling duels were the height of cinema. Turns out, the rewatch left us questioning everything except Tim Curry’s ability to deliver a line like the deliciously evil legend he is.

Along the way, we talk Oliver Platt stealing the show, why some musketeers phoned it in, Teddy’s brief kindergarten identity crisis, and the thrill of sneaking into 90s movie theaters. Spoiler: the Bryan Adams soundtrack may still be the best part.

📝 What You’ll Hear in this Episode:

• Chris O’Donnell’s 90s heartthrob moment (and that wig).
• Oliver Platt: the only one having fun on set.
• Kiefer Sutherland and Charlie Sheen’s very different approaches to “not trying.”
• Tim Curry proving villains are more fun than heroes.
• 90s nostalgia: name changes, sneaking into movies, and VHS rentals.

🎙️ Hosts:

• Mary Meyst-Huset – keeper of a secret,longstanding Chris O’Donnell crush
• Teddy Micklos – Mildred, briefly
