Best Sword Duels (1 Viewer)

Hi Scott,

Amazon.ca has the new version of this movie with Daniel Auteuil in NTSC format. Marie Gillain plays Aurore de Nevers (I know you like pretty French women) :)

Enjoy!
Great recommendation, I watched it last night. BTW, so do I (does anyone not?:D)
 
Duel that never happened......

Most "movie buffs" know why.
 
Comic movie reviewer Joebob Briggs would attach "Fu" to any object used in a movie to fight with. "Chair-Fu", Chainsaw Fu" etc.

I just saw one good sword fight in The Golden Coach (non-lethal) but its near the end.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Golden_Coach

"An Italian commedia dell'arte troupe arrives in a small Peruvian town in the eighteenth century. The chief aristocrat in the town, the Viceroy, has acquired a fabulous golden coach from Europe. He is planning to give it to his mistress, but then falls in love with Camilla, leading actress of the troupe, and gives it to her instead. Camilla, enjoying the high life of being the Viceroy's mistress, is also loved by the leader of the troupe, and by the local star toreador. The Viceroy’s ministers are shocked by his profligacy, and threaten to depose him. Camilla eventually solves the problem by donating the coach to the Bishop of Lima. Camilla returns to the theatre troupe, and the film ends with a celebration of theatre's superiority over life."


You have to imagine that the 44 year old Anna Magnani is really hot enough to have three lovers.
