What movie has a man who had a twin brother who was a king, but he was imprisoned his whole life...?

Answer 1

The man in the iron mask

The most famous story with a royal connection holds that the masked prisoner was Louis XIV's identical twin brother, hidden at birth to avoid complications in the succession, raised secretly far away from court, and imprisoned when he discovered his true identity. The mask, obviously, was to hide the resemblance to the King. The ultimate version is "The Man in the Iron Mask" by Alexandre Dumas (père), published in 1850 as part of his trilogy on the Three Musketeers. All the movies (there have been at least a dozen in Europe and the U.S. since 1910) are based on this popular book. The story is tempting and romantic, but highly implausible and without any supporting evidence whatsoever.
