What have you heard about it?? I haven't heard *anything* about it (which didn't stop me from shilling out 12 euros for it, but maybe it'd be better to rent it). Thus far, I'm rather amused by Saint-Just's poofy 70s hair and excessive eyeliner, but it seems alright.
I also think that the actor playing Saint-Just has a really accurate face. Christopher Thompson in LRF is handsome, but in a more modern way. This guy has the softer features that were much more in vogue at the time and he's even got the Saint-Just bizarro changing appearance thing down. From some angles he does look very beautiful, but from others he looks kind of odd. Might explain some of the portraits.
