This was something of a disappointment. Medieval story beautifully lit, composed and shot, the plot and its resolution eventually turned on religious idiocy.
I had followed the story about personal enlightenment and freeing oneself from the tight strictures and hypocrisy of the ruling religious class but felt dismay when the protagonist returned to it after a trauma. Did he not see any alternatives? Didn't anyone during that time think for themselves? If not, why should we watch a story about one of them when the end is predetermined?
A waste of good talent.
