The Corsican Brothers (Italian: '''I fratelli Corsi''') is a 1961 French-Italian historical action film directed by Anton Giulio Majano and starring Geoffrey Horne, Valérie Lagrange and Gérard Barray. It is also known as Lions of Corsica. The film is an adaptation of the 1844 story The Corsican Brothers by Alexandre Dumas.[2] The film was shot in Eastmancolor.
The Franchi twins, when baptized, were separated when their family was murdered by his enemies, the Sagona. While one brother went "into the maquis" for revenge, the other, unaware of the family drama, became a doctor and struck up a friendship with a descendant of the Sagona. But blood ties and their love for the same woman will bring them together...[3]
