Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe (DVD, 2002)

I purchased this because I enjoy just about anything with Ciarran HInds in it. He is good in this role and the film is more realistic than earlier versions. However, I still like the Anthony Andrews / James Mason version better because the story moves faster and is able to capture depth and emotion in just a few scenes while this Hinds version takes longer to develop and sometimes misses the heroism of the characters. Also in the Hinds version, the knight who surrenders to King Arthur is later killed! This seems to me to be out of character for the code of chivalry when a man's word was his bond.

Well presented version of Walter Scott's classic. All characters are portayed by very good casting. I thought some liberties were taken but not enough to spoil the story. If you are looking for a short film version, it is not for you. If not in a hurry, it will prove enjoyable.

Fast delivery!! Quick response!! Item was just as described, set down right away and watched it straight through.

My husband wanted the movie for Christmas and I found it on E-Bay. It was said to be in new condition so I bid on it and won.
It came in excellent condition and the movie is absolutely awesome!
I am thankful for the opportunity to buy this item.
