This was a special time for fans of medieval history/fantasy. Watching Such films as a kid literally shaped my love and interest in the genre and topic.
@@Yo-ot1rn There are many misconceptions in the past that is being presently corrected by /through thorough reinvestigation and Science. Leprosy is one. It is a disease but not a curse. Today, Leprosy can now be cured through long medicinal intakes . And physical disfiguration can now be altered through cosmetic surgeries. The only thing you need is money.
or the director did. you know its fiction right? Please hollywood stop making movies that pretend fictional ancient is like a machoboy HQs. adults these days are kids forever and dumb. they cry with the scenes its pathetic.
Salahudin had an army the size we cannot comprehend fighting in muslim territory for Allah in order to avenge infidel attacks on peaceful muslims. Baldwin had an army of proven knights fighting under the true cross (supposedly the same cross Jesus was crucified on) in mostly hostile territory looking to save christian men from being murdered by blasphemers. Had it been real, they all would have died. Every man would have died. Every man in that fight would have thrown themselves into the inferno, because if they had survived they would be treated as traitors and deserters and would meet a much harsher end than they could possibly think.
@@ccatch_ Those were the real characters and they respected each other very much. Also Salahadin really send medical aid to Baldwin and later to Richard the Lionheart when he was ill. They both were fantastic men.
Muslims can answer assalamualaikum from anyone. If a non muslim says Assalamualaikumwarrahmatullah then it will be sus but the muslin will still greet them warmly.
"I will send you my Physicians." I like how Saladin very much understands that Baldwin is wearing himself out and know how bad his condition is, but still sees him more friend and neighbor than enemy.
@@artair70 "The Massacre of Ayyadieh occurred during the Third Crusade after the fall of Acre when King Richard I had more than two thousand Muslim prisoners of war from the captured city beheaded in front of the Ayyubid armies of sultan Saladin on 20 August 1191. Despite attacks by Muslim forces during the killings, the Christian Crusaders were able to retire in good order. Saladin subsequently ordered various Crusader prisoners of war to be executed in retaliation."

@@longbow101 yes bro you are right, all the fucking historian out there are wrong and you with your inglorious science knew why salahdin sent his doctors. Not because we have in Islam that whenever you see someone in need for help , you fucking go and help him no matter if he is muslim or not, no matter which rase he is! All the matters that he needs help and if we can provide it we provide it. That’s what mohamed taught us bro
@@thegraymedium_everything, and its better, i watched the original first, but i thought something is missing, and i was right after i watched the director cut, the most important thing is they made the war scene longer, which is better...
It's overlooked for a reason. Ridley Scott just butchers history too much. I would absolutely love a film like kingdom of heaven with that cinematics but a better script.
Sounds like Sergio Leone’s “Once Upon a Time in America”. When the film came out it was called one of the worst films of the year in 1984. The director’s cut was released later and it was hailed as the best movie of the year. Editing matters, LOL.
If you rewatch this scene with that in mind it's like Salahudin could only see his sickness and he was sympathetic to him during the entire "negotiation."
An Islamic Physician between the 9th and 13th century was like a sorcerer, thanks to the Islamic Golden Age. They had a detailed knowledge of cures for a myriad of diseases and maladies - meanwhile in Europe, religious zealotry actively persecuted anyone attempting to so much as remove a rotten tooth. So, for Saladin to send his Personal Physicians to help Baldwin - it was a subtle message conveying how deeply he respected Baldwin, in spite of being his enemy. In a world without politics or religious divide, they might have been the best of friends.
@@GhettoArabSageNo, Baldwin won vs saladin when he was 16. He asked to go back and that he will punish the guy himself no need for unnecessary killing of both sides. Saladin accepted that proposal and he knew Baldwin isn't a trash leader. He won once he can win again. So it's like a win-win for both. He had respect for the person who defeated him and wanted to cure the disease that's why he sent his physicians. Respect for both ❤
People point out that Saladin saying "I will send you my physicians." Is a sign of big respect. But King Baldwin replying As-salamu alaykum is a big reciprocation of that respect. Emphasized because later in the movie, Saladin says As-salamu alaykum to Baelian and Baelian replies in English.
@@Jzscrstsprstr yes if he has 100k armed men behind him, i take that very seriously. EXSPECIALLY if he has leprosy, he has nothing to loose. If he says or we will all die here, there is nothing left to say.
I love that he says "I pray that you withdraw your men or WE will ALL die." He's not saying he'll win, and he's not saying Saladin will win, he's saying that they will both fight until the last man and it simply isn't worth the bloodshed. Extremely reasonable and logical while also being very diplomatic. Amazing depiction of an amazing historical figure.
tbf baldwin constantly beat saladin in a number of battles, never once losing to the muslims. that being said he probably realised the christian position in jerusalem was untenable if hostile relations continued
@@94hako bro he kept losing, and only conquered jerusalem after baldwins death. saladin didnt even manage to beat richard the lionheart in any battle despite having logistical, resource, and manpower superiority
I noticed how uptil 2:43 baldwin is suffering and doing his best to stay strong and potray himself as such by holding his head up high until the terms are made, after which he can finally let go and looks down breathing heavily in agony. This didn't go unnoticed by saladin who took pity and realised how bad his condition had become. His tone in turn becomes soft and compassionate.
Considering Baldwin rode out with the army knowing he would die, he did it just to maintain the peace, it could only be him, Saladin was happy to help him. Baldwin literally sacrificed himself to keep the peace.
@Misha Disrael today men have no honor no respect for culture nor religion they are losing their manners to appear more cool or more "civilized" this is not manhood
I like the way Saladin said "We have terms." Not very often do we get to see a conflict being resolved so decisively and (to a certain level) amicably.
Saladin did utilise a lot of Diplomacy during his rule. Understandably alot of the conflicts during his time were resolved through war, he was one of the few who would take diplomacy if he could.
@@subliminalfalllenangel2108 mate all our leaders have surrendered to the west already, forget islamic glory, its gone, it will return only for a few years, then islam will disappear, its the future, and its how it always will be.
@@subliminalfalllenangel2108 The problem is that the leaders are way TOO diplomatic in the current world. Too much bureaucracy on either side leads to delayed intervention in a time of need. Take the UN for example. Countries outside of their sphere are left to fend while the voting passes (which can often go for longer than a month) and prevents any progress. Plus, in a medieval era, very little resources were allocated in the scale it is now. And even then, most of the imported resources were luxury, there was little need for goods not needed for basic survival. An embargo on the country's resources weren't too much of a threat (aside from neighboring countries, take for example the pyrrhic war where the sea was an important point in trade). In the modern world banana republic states that rely on export of maybe 1 or 2 resources as their main source of income, manpower isn't the main weapon, it's the threat of cutting out essential strategic and civilian goods. And often even in a state of diplomatic impasse, both sides won't back down, which leads to more negotiating jargon which, in turn, stagnates the situation until appropriate ammount of votes are passed through several channels (another process that slows down things). The people, hell, the entire state is left on it's own with zero command outside of their own forces, while the leaders babble away at their large gatherings while innocents and soldiers die... Next time try to sounds less like a pompous prick and read a book for once.
I need to give a lot of credit to Edward Norton for his portrayal of King Baldwin IV, he and Hugo Weaving (V For Vendetta) were able to convey so much emotion with their faces covered.
@@hereticsign Yup, whole face covered not even his eyes were shown but so much emotion in his acting in the way he speaks that the audience is always clear in how he feels.
The shot of the giant golden cross seemingly floating through the air, and then the massive army of Jerusalem appearing out of the mirage behind it was so damn awesome
You have to wonder how different a world it might have been had Baldwin been healthy and ruled over Jerusalem for 20, 30, 40+ years and not just the 11 years of his actual reign. The man spent his entire reign walking a tightrope with no harness over a nest of vipers while a disease was literally eating him alive. He defended his land, his people, and his faith until the day he died. One of history's great characters.
The thing is, we dont know how baldwin would be like if he wasnt afflicted with the condition, it probably made him who he is, and if he didn't die, saladin would have to either attack Jerusalem anyway or find a way for Muslims to accept permanent peace.
Exactly. Baldwin's strength and virtues are a big lesson for all of us. He lived in such a chaotic scenario and still managed to show kindness and greatness in his actions. He was a leader like very few men have ever been and his story is just fascinating. God bless his beautiful sou 🙏❤️
you are a cuck christian if you have salah aldeen as your favorite leader stop being a puppet for muslims trust me they hate you as much as they hate any non muslim
There will be one that God will send..his name is Muhammad bin Abdullah (Imam Mehdi) and he will fight the anti-christ along side with Jesus (Prophet Isa)
My very Catholic mentor told me one at University “There is no reason the sons of Issac and the sons of Ishmael can’t live with one another in peace.” I think about it all the time.
I absolutely loved the fact that they truly respected each other. The way Salaheddine lowered his eyes when king Baldwin seemed unwell and only said that he would send him his physicians; beautiful!
Those two have history, and have leadered a number of wars against each other a bunch of times already... and yet both of them are still alive. So they both see each other as equals at this point.
@Brenden Malloy nope, he send pshychians to check the kings health, like he send one of his best horse to the king richard the lion as a replacement when the kings horse were struck
Saladin: A king does not kill a king. Were you not close enough to a great king to learn by his example? This sentence resembles the respect they had for each other.
I am a Muslim, but I really love Baldwin. He is a great king, despite his illness. He appears strong and speaks expressively and profoundly. He did not surrender or think about retreating in defending his kingdom. He deserves all the love and respect. May he rest in peace after all that suffering. I cannot imagine the pain he suffered in that era. 🙏🏻
That’s the thing. He could obviously fight despite is handicap. But, I’m sure the psychological effect that mask had on his enemies was probably like, ohhhhhhhhhh sheeeeeeeet mane🤣
I m muslim and love this movie....The Epic conversation and Mutual respect between the two great leaders is admirable....The scene where the man say " Jerusalem has come" the cinematography and the background music gives me shivers... Goosebumps....What a movie...A Masterpiece..
"Withdrawal or we will all die here." People in the comments are missing the point. This isn't about Baldwin being a "badass MF" who came here guns blazing and staring down Salahadin. Baldwin is looking at an army leader who is indeed very good at what he does, but who is extremely furious and emotional over what Reynard has done (attacked a pilgrim caravan and killed his sister). Baldwin's "Withdrawal or we will all die here" isn't a threat. It is a reminder that Baldwin is a leader also, and that he will be forced to retaliate against him, should Salahaddin attack the city, thus causing a massive loss of human life. Which is why he gives his word that Reynard shall be punished, through justice and not vengeance. Baldwin having leprosy doesn't mean he has nothing to lose. It means he cherishes every moment of life he can afford, as well as every life that he can save. "A man in a desert treasures every drop of water."
So you wrote all that just to say "Baldwin wasn't threatening him with a proposition, Baldwin was guaranteeing everyone will die if his hand is forced." And you're weirdly heated about it too 🤷🏼♂️
@@St.Smitty Maybe I expressed myself wrongly, but I'm not angry about what I'm saying. I simply noticed a theme on the comments of "Baldwin" being this unstoppable badass with nothing to lose, and I just thought that some hadn't seen it like I did. Out of curiosity, and for future convesations, what exactly was the part of my comment that sounded aggressive?
They were both great leaders of their people. The world today cries for leaders like these two. People who could disagree, be sworn enemies, yet were able to treat each other with respect. Sadly, like the Morning Star - we have all fallen. Christians and Muslims alike.
Despite all the technological progress mankind has made, so many of us still cling to barbarous tribalism mentality. You can take the beast out of the jungle but you cannot take the jungle out of the beast.

Frodo, why do you speak thus of Lucifer? Have you not heard... that one arrives, precisely when they mean to? 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! Isaiah 14:12 KJV 16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. Revelation 22:16 KJV 1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. 6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, 7 and said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing. John 9:1-3, 6-7 KJV A Servant of the Secret Fire... 29 for our God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:29 KJV 9 Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he. John 9:9 KJV Nevertheless my friend... we have all sinned and fell short of the Glory of God. But it is His great pleasure to make an image unto Himself, using our faults, weaknesses and shortcomings to His Glory. If we are humble, we seek him with a pure heart and in good conscience.. in spirit and in truth. And, 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:27-28 KJV And here we are. This is your time, now, what will you do with it? 36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Matthew 22:36-40 KJV 2 I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God. Ecclesiastes 8:2 KJV And never forget, 29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31 but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:29-31 KJV 3 Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 2 John 1:3 KJV
Well, it’s like with any situation when brothers fight and your parents give you grace for not completely destroying one another. And, you’re still getting your asses whooped until you learn to get it right.
Such a great scene between Baldwin and Saladin. King Baldwin was a fascinating character and despite wearing a mask Nortons portrayal and his acting capturing the Kings pain and discomfort especially here is extraordinary. There are very performances that you cant take your eyes off and this is one of them.
Salladin should have killed that bitch (Guy of Lusignan) when King Baldwin died, but he spared his life ... Guy later costed Salladin a war cus he backstabbed Salladin .. its not good to be too merciful sometimes, Salladin was too passive and merciful
@@TsarOfRuss iirc from various sources, it is Salahuddin's policy to never harm a person that he had previously offered hospitality to. Guy de lusignan was offered ice water by Salahuddin after the battle of hattin, as such he would not harm the man. Guy afterwards gave the cup of ice water to Reynald de chatillon, which means salahuddin did not offer the water directly. As such, no hospitality was given. That's part of the reason why salahuddin ends up killing reynald but spared guy
Why?? Because they followed some stupid etiquette?? These people were all uneducated violent psychopaths who murdered for no other reason than religious superstition and political greed.
How can I imagine a KING with no soldiers?!! Who is that KING to Be called " A king " if no one behind him?! And Yes..., there are so many KINGS Who have fought their own battles.
Some of the history as an example atheism was totally banished, both Sallahadin and Baldwin were true warriors that only had a short time of peace and didn't actually want peace, Jerusalem was really important for Sallahadin. Sallahadin didn't respect christians and Baldwin didn't respect muslims. When retaking Jerusalem Sallahadin even made a donkey drag a cross to show disrespect towards the christians. That's the things I know, there are even more.
would be pretty dumb for a leader who wants to control an army to charge on the frontline. There would be no one to take command of the different legions. Had no matter in ancient times, but later with different tacticts and troops there had to be a leader to yell orders and raise banners so the troops knew where to go.
*Meanwhile, two random soldiers stationed at the back was having a conversation as well.* "We'll finally see some action, Tim." "I hope so." "Oh, look. Boss is meeting the other gang's honcho." "Yeah! Time for some trash talk." *Minutes later* "Wait, why is everyone's going home?" "Aw, dammit."
As a Christian, I love how this movie portrays Salahuddin as a cunning and benevolent leader. Who shows he cares for the well being of his men even though he is confronted with war. He did all those soldiers a favor. He drew back to allow them and himself to come home to their families. ✝️🤝☪️
Anyone who has not seen the Director's cut of this film has been robbed, it's an entirely different film with loads more of explaining, it's a great cut.
Funny thing I accidentally watched it! i have watched it two times before and the third time I am confused since I don't remember the scene with the queen sybill's son feel longer...and that's when I realized it's a director's cut and boy I agree it emphasizes more details
@@bimaginaryworld yes there is easy 30 mins extra of Balian back in France when he is mourning his wife, it shows more detail of the local politics and beliefs there. And when his father arrives.
Two badass historic figures, their grand armies behind them, each representing their belief, and decide to just keep the peace & respect. That’s powerful.
@Foul Productions I think its more that any victory to be had between either army present on that field would only be had at a massive cost. A total pyrrhic victory. Saladin knew that he could just starve the Crusaders out essentially, so no point in killing 90% of your army.
@@Drax514 i think not, Salah eddine's army was way more massive and later on he will obliterate Baldwin's army and siege Jeruselum, Salah eddine was the incarnation of justice and if Baldwin agreed to punish the murderer of Salah's sister there's no more reasons to fight.
@@nagato2k633 Remember how baldwin can win battle with outnumber before? Salahuddin respect King Baldwin can manage win that war with young age. It is useless sacrifice man for nothing without any justice, thats why he can manage negotiate between him and salahuddin.
saladin was afraid of the knights on open ground the majority of his force was light cavalry the knights would tear through them like no ones Buisness but they were almost useless when ambushed
To everyone who thinks that the soldiers were annoyed about having hiked across a sea of sand only to turn back after a minute long conversation that they didn't even get to participate in: They were shaking in their boots, thinking that they're going to die any moment, only to hear that nah, we're going home. They had never felt such a spike of totally unexpected euphoria in their lives, and the walk home was probably like a giggly dream -- surreal, but 100% positive.
Good way to put it, many were in high spirits and their hopes for martyrdom nearly achieved, however when it comes to battle there are always those who are indeed, scared and shaking in their boots. Battle is best when avoided
Medieval war was not the same as modern war. The conscripted peasants would probably react this way but the lord or other over zealous or vindictive individuals would've been looking forward to the battle at the beginning. It's only when people start to die and notably when they themselves are attacked do they suddenly become fearful.
@@jonathanlondon4265 There were no conscripts in these armies, conscriptions and drafting were incredibly uncommon during the medieval period. Nearly the entirety of the soldiers you see in this scene are levied soldiers or mercenaries, eg they want to be there. In reality, they loved war, and they would be incredibly pissed that there was no battle. Ancient and medieval warfare was utterly different from modern warfare, and the soldiers fighting then loved it dearly, in general that is.
I know it probably wasn't intentional, but the different riding styles of Saladin and Baldwin are neat. Saladins is a bit more hectic, taking sharp turns. Baldwins is controlled, but also a bit stiff. One was trained to fight with horse-archers and light cavalry, the other in heavy cavalry charge attacks. Neat!
I think it also serves to show the contrast between the two’s health, with Saladin, despite being in his 50s, could ride with and maneuver with much spirit, whereas Baldwin, much much younger, takes meaningful, deliberate and careful movements due to his advanced leprosy, and the toll it has taken on his body
It also is a great metaphor for the zeal, determination and vigour both men have not just for their religious beliefs, but their capability to lead at the forefront of two worlds. Mind you, Europe still warred actively with itself whilst the Muslims were engaging with threats to the East. To bring about ANY military or diplomatic action would require no small amount of charisma. However, it is clear that the Chrisitians were living on borrowed time as is. Baldwin's death is one of those very apparent moments in history that served as a turning point for the future events.
Another thing maybe people won't notice is the fact that the director maybe wanted to show that Salahaddin horse was an Arabian, a breed of horses known to be hot tempered, fast, feisty, athletic, slender with a lot of character. Baldwin on the other hand probably was riding a Thorobreed horse or some other European breed, much quieter, but bigger and more suited to heavy cavalry action
@@mohandave5825 he murdered thousands of prisoners and was a terrible person overall, who enjoyed war and near bankrupted his nation waging it across Europe
@Eli Bishop She's a beautiful lady, yes. She has a powerful career and is fully deserving of respect. I suggest you review the terms you use to refer to any women, you may think they're flattering, but very few women would genuinely appreciate them.
Saladin really cares for Baldwin's health for several reasons. But most of them all is that he knows that Baldwin can be trusted. It is a war, but a fair one. Nothing stupid is going to be done whilst Baldwin is alive. A new King can bring unreasonable chaos and an outcome that is eventually sub optimal
theres a reason why baldwin wanted godfrey's son balien to become king in this movie instead of sybilla's current husband guy de lusignan, who wanted war with salahdin. if he had actually agreed to become king, the christians would have held onto the jeruselam for a lot longer and richard the lionheart would not have had to ride into battle and fight with salahdin for 3 yrs nonstop. idiots, the lot of them.
@@jonathanlee5314 thats why baldwin wanted balien to take control of the armies after he passed in the movie. he clearly mentioned that when he openly told that guy and his templars will be taken care of if balien said yes. personally, id have said yes. till a few moons ago, he didnt even know he was the son of a baron who was one of the greatest knights of that time and now he had the chance to become the king of jerusalem.
As a Muslim I respect Salahuddin and Baldwin for their wholesome class and sincerity..no fucking ego and arrogance just a respect for each others leadership...
@@vakkasyagc7956 He is not just a prophet but God in the flesh…salvation can ONLY be found in Jesus Christ…He is the way the truth and the life…if you believe in him with all your heart you will be saved.
Saladin was smart. He knew the peace couldn't last but he decided to wait for a better opportunity. Which was practically given to him on a silver platter
I like how even though the king of Jerusalem was VISIBLY sick and Saladin didn’t see it as an opportunity to attack him. He showed empathy and even offered medical help to enemy and it highlights not only their respect for each other but their own character and integrity. Smh I love this movie 🥹
He did the same to Richard the Lionheart. As soon as Salahudin heard that Richard fell ill, he sent bags of fresh fruit aswell as a pile of ice to him. And when Richards Horse died, he sent him a new one. All while still being at war with him. Some people are born to be men.
I respect every Muslim even when iam cristian, they give me respect back God loves as all and deep inside we are one....I believieve in union and love to our children and bright future , respect to all Muslims
"I pray you return unharmed to Damascus or we will all die here" with this sentence alone King Baldwin implies the battle would not have a decided winner thus giving Saladin the respect he deserves as a warrior and King while also being humble at the same time. Clearly Saladin admired this and immediately agreed to his terms while showing him respect in return and offering his help with Baldwin's health... Astounding leaders from both parties.
Baldwin and Saladin were rulers of their time. They were ruthless rulers. However for their time they were indeed mild and thoughtful men. Both men respected each other. The film softens history a fair bit. The film made me look up the real histories of Saladin and Baldwin.
@@MorroTreece I think you're conflating historical events with dramatized dialogue and filler. There are many rulers throughout history who were hated by their own people or just simply existed to exist.. there were very few who changed the fabric of their societies for the better, with no other motive than the betterment of their own people (those tend to be the ones who are assassinated by nobility/senate members/council members). This is a story of two of these rare leaders meeting as enemies, but showing the utmost respect for their enemies (both leaders, and soldiers).
There is no such thing as benevolence in high-stakes politics. If you're benevolent, you are naive, and if you are naive, you'll get stomped by the most rudimentary tricks in the book.
Blooper at 1:21, lower right corner of the screen, you can see posts and rope made to mark where the extras should walk up to, and it has yellow ductape on it.
what made this scene great was that these men saw the humanity in one another as they decide whether or not to go to war. It shows you how pride and ego can lead to death and destruction, where decisions made on compassion and mutual respect can dissolve it.
I love that the comments are just admiring & respecting both historical kings & how ashamed we all are from whatever ‘leaders’ we have today.. I never knew about this movie only recently when it aired on TV, but ever since then, I am in complete awe when watching it. Subhan Allah, the battle of Jerusalem still matters till today.
You don't kno a thing. Political correctness will he the downfall of society. When lies become just as good as the truth. When people refuse to acknowledge.. Not religion.. But history. And try to change history. It will be the downfall. The Arab world is isolated from the rest of the world. They will never acknowledge the truth. When their awaited leader arrives, soon.. They will serve him... And because people like you refused to find out the truth. You will become their servant. But in the end that leaders reign will be cut short.. And its in your best interest to fight the lies now.
@@NewYorkBattleCat I have no idea what you mean but alright, I appreciate your opinion. I’m just tired of fighting ya’all.. away from Politics. But Arabs are not isolated from the world, religion is life (to those who are raised to be a good Christian or Muslim), this movie is great and the quality of this video even better lol.
So after seeing this snippets I bought the movie (I actually bought a blue ray dvd and watched it). Its a great movie. One of my favorite parts was when the high priest said "tell him we'll convert to Islam, then we can repent later", and the knight looks at him and says something to the effect of "I learn more about religion every day I'm with you".
Sultan Saladdin: "I pray that you pull back your cavalry and leave this matter to me." ((later after negotiating terms & coming to agreement)) Sultan Saladdin: "I'll send you my Physicians." King Saladdin actually worries about King Baldwin's health. They're enemies BUT (to me at least) should the times & settings be different, the 2 men would have been the best of friends that honor & respect each other.
True. He sounds almost sad, as if it was already said and done, which underlies the strength and power of that man. A threat is not a threat if he cannot deliver what he said
@@cruxivar6026 Nah don't be naive. The love-hate relationship between true rivals of power is much more complex. They respect and love each other precisely because they could and have done the most harm to each other. It's almost Stockholm Syndrome. Saladdin sent Baldwin his physician because he knew Baldwin was not long in this world to prevent him from taking over Jerusalem, so he was essentially paying his last respect
Let me tell you this Michael from someone who study islamic culture : muslim do not fear death instead they seek it in battles. In this scene, historically, Saladdin came to "revenge" not to conquor Jerusalem. He got what he came for and therefore decided to retreat.

Both Baldwin and Saladin were good men. I like the way each are portrayed here, and the show of mutual respect reminds me of Proverbs 16:7, "When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him."
"A king does not kill another one. Were you not close enough to a great king to have learned from his example?" Saladin to Guy de Lusignan after Hattin.
The amount of respect for those 2 leaders from their own people and armies was enormous, this was seen as the whole army returned back instantly as their leaders switch back their direction !

If you rewatch this scene with that in mind it's like Salahudin could only see his sickness and he was sympathetic to him during the entire "negotiation."
An Islamic Physician between the 9th and 13th century was like a sorcerer, thanks to the Islamic Golden Age. They had a detailed knowledge of cures for a myriad of diseases and maladies - meanwhile in Europe, religious zealotry actively persecuted anyone attempting to so much as remove a rotten tooth.
So, for Saladin to send his Personal Physicians to help Baldwin - it was a subtle message conveying how deeply he respected Baldwin, in spite of being his enemy. In a world without politics or religious divide, they might have been the best of friends.

Thank you for that piece of information.
Considering Baldwin rode out with the army knowing he would die, he did it just to maintain the peace, it could only be him, Saladin was happy to help him. Baldwin literally sacrificed himself to keep the peace.

@@subliminalfalllenangel2108 The problem is that the leaders are way TOO diplomatic in the current world. Too much bureaucracy on either side leads to delayed intervention in a time of need. Take the UN for example. Countries outside of their sphere are left to fend while the voting passes (which can often go for longer than a month) and prevents any progress. Plus, in a medieval era, very little resources were allocated in the scale it is now. And even then, most of the imported resources were luxury, there was little need for goods not needed for basic survival. An embargo on the country's resources weren't too much of a threat (aside from neighboring countries, take for example the pyrrhic war where the sea was an important point in trade). In the modern world banana republic states that rely on export of maybe 1 or 2 resources as their main source of income, manpower isn't the main weapon, it's the threat of cutting out essential strategic and civilian goods. And often even in a state of diplomatic impasse, both sides won't back down, which leads to more negotiating jargon which, in turn, stagnates the situation until appropriate ammount of votes are passed through several channels (another process that slows down things). The people, hell, the entire state is left on it's own with zero command outside of their own forces, while the leaders babble away at their large gatherings while innocents and soldiers die...

He defended his land, his people, and his faith until the day he died. One of history's great characters.

"Withdrawal or we will all die here."
People in the comments are missing the point.
This isn't about Baldwin being a "badass MF" who came here guns blazing and staring down Salahadin.
Baldwin is looking at an army leader who is indeed very good at what he does, but who is extremely furious and emotional over what Reynard has done (attacked a pilgrim caravan and killed his sister).
Baldwin's "Withdrawal or we will all die here" isn't a threat.
It is a reminder that Baldwin is a leader also, and that he will be forced to retaliate against him, should Salahaddin attack the city, thus causing a massive loss of human life. Which is why he gives his word that Reynard shall be punished, through justice and not vengeance.
Baldwin having leprosy doesn't mean he has nothing to lose.

Guy afterwards gave the cup of ice water to Reynald de chatillon, which means salahuddin did not offer the water directly. As such, no hospitality was given. That's part of the reason why salahuddin ends up killing reynald but spared guy
Why?? Because they followed some stupid etiquette??

Some of the history as an example atheism was totally banished, both Sallahadin and Baldwin were true warriors that only had a short time of peace and didn't actually want peace, Jerusalem was really important for Sallahadin.
Sallahadin didn't respect christians and Baldwin didn't respect muslims. When retaking Jerusalem Sallahadin even made a donkey drag a cross to show disrespect towards the christians. That's the things I know, there are even more.

President of Chad did this... look how he ended😂
Now we have coward civilian cunts who rose to power and command from behind the desk far away from the actual fight.
would be pretty dumb for a leader who wants to control an army to charge on the frontline. There would be no one to take command of the different legions. Had no matter in ancient times, but later with different tacticts and troops there had to be a leader to yell orders and raise banners so the troops knew where to go.

@@mrnord4096 Not quite, you forget that the Muslims had Mamluks, they were the best of the best at the time.
To everyone who thinks that the soldiers were annoyed about having hiked across a sea of sand only to turn back after a minute long conversation that they didn't even get to participate in:
They were shaking in their boots, thinking that they're going to die any moment, only to hear that nah, we're going home. They had never felt such a spike of totally unexpected euphoria in their lives, and the walk home was probably like a giggly dream -- surreal, but 100% positive.
Good way to put it, many were in high spirits and their hopes for martyrdom nearly achieved, however when it comes to battle there are always those who are indeed, scared and shaking in their boots.
Battle is best when avoided
Medieval war was not the same as modern war. The conscripted peasants would probably react this way but the lord or other over zealous or vindictive individuals would've been looking forward to the battle at the beginning. It's only when people start to die and notably when they themselves are attacked do they suddenly become fearful.
@@jonathanlondon4265 yoo!!!war has not changed.."the poor fight the wars the rich dream up"
@@jonathanlondon4265 There were no conscripts in these armies, conscriptions and drafting were incredibly uncommon during the medieval period. Nearly the entirety of the soldiers you see in this scene are levied soldiers or mercenaries, eg they want to be there. In reality, they loved war, and they would be incredibly pissed that there was no battle.
Ancient and medieval warfare was utterly different from modern warfare, and the soldiers fighting then loved it dearly, in general that is.
maybe the muslim soldiers were annoyed because they wanted to go to heaven
The greatest encounter in cinema history
I know it probably wasn't intentional, but the different riding styles of Saladin and Baldwin are neat. Saladins is a bit more hectic, taking sharp turns. Baldwins is controlled, but also a bit stiff. One was trained to fight with horse-archers and light cavalry, the other in heavy cavalry charge attacks. Neat!
I think it also serves to show the contrast between the two’s health, with Saladin, despite being in his 50s, could ride with and maneuver with much spirit, whereas Baldwin, much much younger, takes meaningful, deliberate and careful movements due to his advanced leprosy, and the toll it has taken on his body
It also is a great metaphor for the zeal, determination and vigour both men have not just for their religious beliefs, but their capability to lead at the forefront of two worlds.
Mind you, Europe still warred actively with itself whilst the Muslims were engaging with threats to the East. To bring about ANY military or diplomatic action would require no small amount of charisma.
However, it is clear that the Chrisitians were living on borrowed time as is. Baldwin's death is one of those very apparent moments in history that served as a turning point for the future events.
Another thing maybe people won't notice is the fact that the director maybe wanted to show that Salahaddin horse was an Arabian, a breed of horses known to be hot tempered, fast, feisty, athletic, slender with a lot of character. Baldwin on the other hand probably was riding a Thorobreed horse or some other European breed, much quieter, but bigger and more suited to heavy cavalry action

Saladin really cares for Baldwin's health for several reasons. But most of them all is that he knows that Baldwin can be trusted. It is a war, but a fair one. Nothing stupid is going to be done whilst Baldwin is alive. A new King can bring unreasonable chaos and an outcome that is eventually sub optimal
theres a reason why baldwin wanted godfrey's son balien to become king in this movie instead of sybilla's current husband guy de lusignan, who wanted war with salahdin. if he had actually agreed to become king, the christians would have held onto the jeruselam for a lot longer and richard the lionheart would not have had to ride into battle and fight with salahdin for 3 yrs nonstop.

with this sentence alone King Baldwin implies the battle would not have a decided winner thus giving Saladin the respect he deserves as a warrior and King while also being humble at the same time. Clearly Saladin admired this and immediately agreed to his terms while showing him respect in return and offering his help with Baldwin's health... Astounding leaders from both parties.
They managed to portray those 2 great leaders without taking away anything from each of them, what a scene!
Well said.
Benevolent rulers were and are rare. When two meet on the field of battle, It is legend.
Baldwin and Saladin were rulers of their time. They were ruthless rulers. However for their time they were indeed mild and thoughtful men. Both men respected each other. The film softens history a fair bit. The film made me look up the real histories of Saladin and Baldwin.
Think you're buying too much into the myth versus reality.
@@MorroTreece I think you're conflating historical events with dramatized dialogue and filler. There are many rulers throughout history who were hated by their own people or just simply existed to exist.. there were very few who changed the fabric of their societies for the better, with no other motive than the betterment of their own people (those tend to be the ones who are assassinated by nobility/senate members/council members). This is a story of two of these rare leaders meeting as enemies, but showing the utmost respect for their enemies (both leaders, and soldiers).
There is no such thing as benevolence in high-stakes politics. If you're benevolent, you are naive, and if you are naive, you'll get stomped by the most rudimentary tricks in the book.
When you look up their history, you find out they were highly intelligent and educated men. Masters of the Lands. And formidable in battle.
