Plot
Edmond Dantès is falsely accused and sentenced to spend the rest of his life in the notorious island prison, Chateau d'If. While imprisoned, he meets Abbé Faria, a fellow prisoner whom everyone believes to be mad. Abbe tells Edmond of a fantastic treasure hidden away on a tiny island, that only he knows the location of. After many years in prison, the old Abbe dies, and Edmond escapes disguised as the dead body to find the treasure Abbe told him of, so he can use the new-found wealth to exact revenge on those who have wronged him.
