With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for anyone who likes their action precise and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Lean and efficient, like its main character. Liked The Godfather Part III or Julius Caesar? This is a good next one.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 15 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1911: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
The bastard brothers Fadrique, Enrique and Tello de Trastámara conspire against King Pedro I, who orders Fadrique to be assassinated and who, in turn, dies at the hands of Enrique in the presence of Bertrán Duglesclín.
