beautiful

it is difficult to unlike this film. correct adaptation, good acting, romantic and seductive, it is a real delight. not only for story but for extraordinary cast. and, sure, for values of another time.it is not spectacular and, at first sigh, its ambitions are not great. but its fundamental virtue remains delicate beauty. the good translation of spirit of memorable novel. the flavor of love without any innovation. the brave hero and his sacrifice. James Mason and Olivia Hussey. the great Michael Hordern. and, first, the clear performance of Anthony Andrews.a kind of testimony about a form of art. pure and almost innocent. and a nice TV film. it is enough in search of walls against mediocrity.

Swedish tradition

It's fun to think how Hollywood can start new traditions in countries far away. In Sweden there are a couple of things that must be broadcasted in the Xmas and New Year holidays...on Xmas Eve it's cartoon with Donald Duck & Co at 3 PM....(there was a great anger some years ago when there was rumor going on saying that the state-television wouldn't broadcast the show because it had been bought by an other commercial-station...luckily they got it back and broadcasted it thus saving that tradition). The second tradition from Hollywood is the broadcasting of this version of Ivanhoe. Always at 3 PM on New Years Day....

The movie is quite good. The actors does well performances and it follows the plot of the book good. But as in many mainstream-medieval-Hollywood-heroic-movies it romanticize the whole era a bit to much, but that is easily looked over. Therefore I feel I can strongly recommend this movie.

Good Television

Television is such a wasteland at times.

Every once in a while a good thing comes out of TV. Ivanhoe is one of those things. It's episodal, which diminishes the dramatic impact sometimes, but considering its budget and the medium, it really is a fine piece of work.

A great story...some great acting (Rebecca is exceptionally played) and a wonderful blend of drama, adventure, romance and raw violence.

refers to the VHS version

I love this movie. Everyone is playing larger than life, but that's fine with me. Olivia Hussey is wonderful as Rebecca. Anthony Andrews is great in any period part (or any other, for that matter). It took me a few viewings to figure out that that really was Sam Neill, as he's not as understated as I'm used to seeing him play. Lysette Anthony is pretty as Ivanhoe's love, if a bit less convincing as someone who would cause him to be faithful to her forever. The Black Knight coming to Ivanhoe's rescue is an interesting move. Basically everything that one other reviewer hated most about this movie were the things I liked the best.

If they would put this out on DVD I'd be extremely happy.

Strange customs

I guess all countries have a few strange traditions and this film is connected to one of ours in Sweden. Every New Year´s Day the last twenty years public service television have showned this movie in the afternoon, the perfect time for dragging yourself up, buying a pizza and maybe forget your extreme hangover for a while. Everyone knows the film inside out but are still watching it year after year; fills in on every funny line (like when de Boeuf shouts "Striiip him!"), laughs once again over great characters like Athelstone and Tuck and gets annoyed over how Ivanhoe can choose the boring Lady Rowena before foxy Olivia Hussey. I can´t really say anymore if it´s a good movie or not but I guess it´s perfect for a day after...

At the very end as Rebecca leaves the castle, the sea is visible in the background. But York is inland.

Zitate
Friar Tuck: Make room, make room for your godly father and his prisoner. I am like an eagle, with it's prey in it's clutches. A victim to my sword.
Isaac of York: For the love of God would someone take me away from this madman.
Robin Hood: Where did you find him?
Friar Tuck: I was looking for a draft of noble Norman wine, when down in the cellar I found this infidel. I was going to beat his brains out but I took pity upon his gray hair and converted him then and there.
Isaac of York: That's a lie, I'm not converted, he lies.
Friar Tuck: You call me a liar, then I must teach you better manners.
[about to punch Isaac of York]
King Richard: [Stops Friar Tuck] Hold! Strike me, Friar, if you dare. I'll stand by your blow if you'll stand by mind.
Friar Tuck: Right. Then down you go.
[Punches King Richard who barely moves]
King Richard: Now, my turn
[Punches Friar Tuck who falls to the ground]
Friar Tuck: I think you broke my jaw.
King Richard: I think not, you can still speak. Come, let's put an end to this nonsense.
[Helps Friar Tuck up]
Isaac of York: I am Isaac of York. Has anyone seen my daughter Rebecca?
Robin Hood: We saw her. Carried off by Brian Guilbert when the castle fell.
Isaac of York: Is done dead. Where was she taken?
Robin Hood: If I had to guess, I would say north to Templestone where the knights of the Templar gather.
Isaac of York: I must leave at once, I must pay the ransom. Please, who would guide me, I will pay money to anyone who would guide me.
Friar Tuck: Oh dear, sweet, gentle Jew... I apologize if we had harsh words before. I would be happy to guide you to Templestone for a small fee. 200 stekas.
Isaac of York: 200 stekas.
Friar Tuck: We shall leave in the morning.
Isaac of York: We shall leave at once.
Friar Tuck: We leave at once.
