Yah, the grammars a little iffy.

I agree about the lousy tagline. A tagline, once more, should make the movie goer, once more, want to see the film, once more, again and again. And to rent it, once more, on DVD, one more time.

Insanity is as close as saying yes to wrong impulse.

Hmmmmmmmmm......that wouldn't work either....they should just retag it in contemporary fashion as it should be 'The Duke's finale'. Simple!

Do you mean --- "I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on."

I don't think it's that bad. The grammar is a product of cowboy colloquialism.
