    Period film with excellent acting

    Beautifully shot, excellent acting with all the right people in the leads.

    Tristan (Marco) is a hero who has been taken under the wing of Rufus Sewell in the days when England was several kingdoms with everyone wanting unity under one King. Except that some are prepared to be underhand about it.

    Fight scenes are missing the gore of Gladiator and Troy so are probably suitable for younger viewers.

    Tristan inadvertently falls in love with the betrothed of the King, and nobly struggles to keep it under control.

    The romance develops gently without explicit scenes, and leaves space between the characters that leaves you empathising.

    Tension mounts because of impending battle, deception, and the developing love interest,which as you suspect throughout does end in (someones) tears. Rufus Sewell is outstanding throughout, with an understated selfcontrol and inspiring leadership.

    A very entertaining and well acted film with a good story line and strong characters - my ideal recipe for any book or film.
