Phillipe, alias De Muis, kan ontsnappen uit de zwaar bewaakte gevangenis in de burcht van de bisschop. Marquet en zijn ridders maken meteen jacht op hem. Onderweg wordt Phillipe echter voortdurend in de gaten gehouden door een ruiter met een havik op de arm. Nu de nood het hoogst is, snelt die hem ter hulp. De ridders moeten de aftocht blazen, maar hebben de ruiter wel herkend als de verbannen Etienne Navarre. Phillipe en zijn redder trekken samen verder. Wanneer de jongeman 's nachts door een wolf wordt opgeschrikt, is Navarre nergens te vinden, maar komt er een mooie dame met de ogen van een havik te voorschijn. Zij brengt de wolf tot bedaren. De volgende morgen verneemt Phillipe waarom Navarre hem nodig heeft: hij moet hem binnenloodsen in de burcht van de bisschop.

One of my favorites of all time., 18 September 2000

I am not a person who takes the word "favorite" lightly. This is a beautiful movie! It is funny, full of action and Romantic (yes, with a capital 'R'.) I saw this movie the first time when I was eleven, back in '86. It then took about four years before I saw it again, but I never forgot the feeling it left me with: This is heart-wrenching romance. I only recently bought the video. For some reason I have been unable to track it down sooner. Anyway, I pulled the video tape out of the box and, with mixed feelings, I slid it into the video. Would it be the same? Would it still move me? (Would the music still suck? *grin*) YES!!! It WAS the same! It DID move me! And: NO! The music felt strangely "right." Yes, I would like to see this movie with a classical score, just to find out... But the "awfulness" of the score (btw, it's not bad all the way) only furthered the porcelain beauty of the visuals (watch the scene with the hawk flying over a still lake -- it's wings dipping into the water -- I get goosebumps), and the pure genius of the characters and dialogue. Now, the main actors/actress: Rutger Hauer: This, along with Blade Runner, is your finest work ever! Mr. Hauer delivers a top-notch performance as the brooding, cursed one-man army called Navarre. Matthew Broderick: This WAS your finest hour. Yes, Mr. Broderick has given us suspense and laughter after Ladyhawke, but nowhere near his performance as Phillipe. Michelle Pfeiffer: Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the most beautiful woman in the world? I do not mean "perfect", because that would be predictable. No, Mrs. Pfeiffer (Kelley?)is simply beautiful in an ancient sense. She is sprung out of a myriad of romance stories. There couldn't have been a better choice for this part. That innocence, that beauty. Isabeau comes to life in the incredible acting. Too little screen time makes you appreciate it even MORE when she enters the plot. The rest of the cast is too good to be true. John Wood's Bishop, who only comes to "life" after he realises what is about to happen in the end. Before that he is only a shell of a man. And a big BRAVO! and a huge round of applause for the wonderful performance of Leo McKern as the massive, drunkard priest Imperius. Also watch for Alfred Molina in an, even for him, nasty role as the hunter Cezàr which he pulls off with his usual finesse. Bravo Mr. Molina. Finishing up, I would like to mention, in brief, the equestrianship. It is wonderful. I know only a little about horses, but I know that those used in the movie are not your average show jumping ponies. *grin* The riders are incredible. I have not yet seen riding of that kind. They make it look effortless. They are one with the horse. The comment to tip the scale (which is already tipped almost over to "What-are-you-nuts?-Haven't-you-already-seen-this?": ALL of it is made without computers!!!

Matthew Broderick ...  Phillipe Gaston 
Rutger Hauer ...  Captain Etienne Navarre 
Michelle Pfeiffer ...  Isabeau d'Anjou 
Leo McKern ...  Father Imperius the Monk
