@@WilfredIvanhoe at?! Not even in A Knight's Tale, starring Heath Ledger? How about the jousting scenes in the original 1952 movie version, starring Robert Taylor and Elizabeth Taylor? I thought those were all pretty good.
@@v1e1r1g1e1 Nowhere NEAR as good as this. Personally I dislike the 1952 movie because it deviates from the book a lot more than this. And they entirely skipped the mass tourney event and made Ivanhoe get wounded in a VERY stupid way. And combining the Black Knight (King Richard!) and Ivanhoe into a single character... that made me facepalm even as a kid. A Knight's Tale, in turn, looks a bit too "modernized". Sure, there are some impressive details, but otherwise the movie was made for a less literate audience. And the armor they use, while far better than in most "historical" movies, is about 150 years too modern to the Black Prince's era.
It was so important in the day that Saxon people held position, and status in the land, and procreated to make more Saxons. The performances are outstanding: Anthony Andrews, Sam Neil, James Mason, Olivia Hussey and Michael Horden. The jousting scenes were spectacular and realistic: The film created a window on English history, and was very well done.
Revealing mistake: If you look closely, the knight (Bois Gilbert jousts against)‘s dark colored horse @6:34 has no white marking on its forehead. As Bois Gilbert knocks the knight off his horse, @6:38-39, the knight’s horse has a white marking.
I didnt even understand English back then but I can recite these scenes word to word, they should do remake, but avoid the woke agenda in the series and make sure the dramatic scenes and music remain
Much lessfaithful to the book, and except for Elizabeth Taylor, the actors are much too old for their parts. (Okay, de Bois-Guilbert is around forty). I first read ivanhoe when iwas about fourteen and reread it recently. The 1982 version is the best,, in my view, and the decision to have Bois-Guilbert basically sacrifice his life to save Rebecca instead of dropping dead of a stroke or heart attack like in the book was actually an improvement, and I say this as someone who is generally a stickler for fidelity to the original.
Man....such memories! I ate this up when I was a kid.
The jousting scenes are still arguably among the best to this day
Absolutely. Never seen a better jousting scene in any medieval movie.

Awesome movie and great actors 🙏😊
Gimli, Don Montero, and Dr Alan Grant are the three villainous Norman challengers.

The problem beeing they could not hold position. Ivanhoe is a fiction to bring solace to Saxon slaves, like Robin Hood. 😭😭😭😭
Such an under rated film, as a Swede this is an iconic movie!
Now i know were my name came. Thanks to my father 🥰
I was given the second named Juliet in the hope that I would grow up to look like Olivia Hussey.
In Sweden its tradition to Watch on new years day and eat pizza
It aired first time 1982 new years eve. But in end of 80s or beginning of 90s they changed to new years day
I am sweidsh, and i never heard about this.
I love Sam Neill
Love this movie💗

Can you upload the entire 1982 version of this??? That would be awesome!

Its 40 years old. Copyright ran out. @@Nadia-mh5gi
an all star great cast, Sam Neil and Anthony Andrews too.
Rebecca 😍
miss riding horses.. had a redbrownblack English fullblood as favourite. MiSSAN, was her name. My best friend at 10.
Is there a part 2? You can't just show half of it and then just leave us hanging.
Love Anthony Andrews!
To think I used to get nervous entering a tennis tournament? Perspective anyone? I feel sorry for the horses?

Ivanhoe the african feminist coming up
@@jimbombadill hahaha
This movie is a joke. The one from 1952 is 10 times better.
How come? Havn't seen it

A rubbish production James Mason must have been embarrassed
