Synopsis:
Witty, offbeat historical comedy drama, starring Ian Holm as Napoleon, who hatches a cunning plan to return from exile and reclaim control of France. When he encounters a sailor who bears an uncanny resemblance to him (also played by Holm), he arranges to swap places so he can make his way to Paris unnoticed. However, the double gets a little too used to living the life of an emperor, leaving the real Bonaparte stuck as a commoner. With Iben Hjejle and Tim McInnerny
