When the jailers throw the body into the sea from the Chateau D'If, rocks are seen below, but when the body splashes into the water, there are no rocks, only the fortified walls of the Chateau are seen at water level.

Mercedes: To Africa... to find my son and be near him. He's joined the Army.
Edmond Dantes: Albert a soldier?
Mercedes: He wants to expiate his father's sins.
Edmond Dantes: Let me join you on your voyage. I can be of help to you both.
Mercedes: My son would never permit that.
Edmond Dantes: Once you said he should have been our son.
Mercedes: Should have been, yes. But he has a father and he has his father's name... a name you so thoroughly destroyed.
Edmond Dantes: That was simple justice, madam, and believe me it brought me no joy. But now my task's accomplished. I've no particular place in the world, no strong desire in life... but to make amends where I've hurt the innocent.
Mercedes: Avenging angels may not ask forgiveness of their victims.
Edmond Dantes: I am no longer the instrument of God! I've been plunged back into nothingness! I'm searching something lost... my soul, my self... for Edmond Dantes.
Mercedes: You will never find him. He died a long time ago in the Chateau d'If... and much of me is buried with him. But I celebrate the Count of Monte Cristo's return to the world of men, and I wish for him from the depths of my heart that will find the peace for which he yearns.
Edmond Dantes: But never... never will he find that perfect love which two young people lost... irretrieveably lost so many, many years ago. Bon voyage... Countess Mondego.
Mercedes: Goodbye, Count.

A Decent Stripped Down Version

This is a nice introduction to the Dumas story. Chamberlain is very convincing count. The greatest strength are the scenes at the Château D'if and the relationship of Edmund Dantes with the old priest who saves him. This is really quite gut wrenching. I know it's not the responsibility of the writers to explain everything historically, but it would have been good to have a bit of the Bonapartist issues and the turmoil in France. Once Dantes finds the fortune and begins his quest for revenge, things get so short on detail, but that is the price of a two hour effort with commercials thrown in. Chamberlain makes a good swashbuckler. Louis Jordan and Tony Curtis do quite a bit of overacting, but that's OK. It's a big book and others have tried to put the story on screen, but this has always been fun for me.
