  • Based on the Umberto Eco novel of the same name, Jean-Jacques Annaud's film gives Sean Connery's medieval monk a murder mystery to solve with some help from a young Christian Slater. The pair do their best Holmes and Watson while facing off against F. Murray Abraham's menacing inquisitor.

    Just watched this on laserdisc yesterday after having not seen it since i was a teen. This is one of those films that gets better with age, I think its very underrated considering the talent involved.

    The ending of this film made such an impact on my childhood. I've lived my life in a state of perpetual nastalgia and aware that the small choices we make can permanently alter our fates ❤

    I wouldn’t worry about spoilers in a movie from 1986. The folks looking this film up are probably looking for a discussion about the film. Glad to see someone covering it though! Cheers

    This movie is a fascinating look at a time and place that I think has been seldom depicted in a quality movie. I have seen it several times over the past 15 years, may be time for another look. Also, there is modeling of male mentoring.

    I loved this movie when it came out. As a murder/mystery fan, this put a real twist on it by being such a great period piece. Very atmospheric, and reminded me of a wonderful Agatha Christie mystery set in ancient Egypt. I have not found it on any of the streaming services. It seems to only be available on DVD. Thanks for this👍

      No, it doesn’t seem to be on any streaming sites which is a shame because it’s a great movie that still holds up today. Thanks for the comment, Kellie 😎 ~ J

    Ron Perlman is a legend he starred in City of lost children.
    He has amazing filmography.

    You'll be glad to know this film has recently been restored in 4K format. I also watched the mini-series with John Turturro, that takes more characters and subplots from the novel, expands the main female part and adds an action girl (because too many men?). Quite decent show anyway but nowhere near Annaud's work in terms of atmosphere, especially the oppressive lock-in feeling.

    Great film. This film had its loss Columbia Pictures deal due to Sean Connery lack of box office appeal which the following year Connery had his comeback with The Untouchables.

    A very good film, different spin, like a modern day crime drama based in medieval times. Loved it.

    • @cineXplorers
      @cineXplorers  Před rokem +1

      Big fan of Maiden but I’ve never listened to Blaze’s contribution so I hadn’t realised about the connection, just had a listen to that one today, so I’ll have to give the whole record a spin finally!

      @@cineXplorers The X Factor has some great moments - especially the darker tracks. Blood on the World's Hands is excellent, Lord of the Flies is really good, as is The Aftermath. The whole middle part of the final track is great too. A very different album, but a really great grower with some genuinely unusual territory for the band.

    If Sean Connery was a monk, I don't think the woman would have realistically went with Christian Slater when James Bond is there!😂
