agreed

Agreed...all clickbait shite. Just call it a review ffs.

Right?

agreed, i just watched the movie, i don't need someone to retell it to me

Click bait for views . Views are money .

Same😂😂

Heaven & Earth!!!!!.....

@@ryanguilbert3425 heaven and earth what?

@@Jayblazey u must have not seen the movie....

@@ryanguilbert3425 I did, Bens character says "heaven and earth what?" after Matt Damon screams it. Everyone then laughs at Damon while he struggles to mount his horse. Thought you'd get the reference 😄

OMG ME TOO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Someone pointed it out and I still couldn't figure out it was Ben Affleck lmao

For anecdote a friend of mine was an extra, the trial scene having been shot in France in the Fontfroide abbey. She saw Ben Affleck dressed as Pierre, but not recognizing him and thinking it was another extra, she asked him for water, in French, and you can imagine that he didn't understand and didn't answer. Finally, it was when she left the cinema, more than a year after the shooting, that she realized that it was this actor.

Me too haha I only knew at the end credits haha Lol 😂😂😂

I didn't recognize him until the roof scene!

Was the opposite for me. Thought it was him and had to look it up to see it really was lol

Because she was a fuck head and wanted to shut out and make her feel like shit. I did on the surface think that the mother in law arranged what happened.

@@SuperHeroNexus why?

Because she was a Bi@ch, and just wanted to be wicked. That simple.

@@Diogenes33 I think the mother planned the rape with the intent for her to get pregnant

@@SB-dt6yp This is a true story and the fact is that we don't know who told the truth, and we probably never will. In reality this scene with the mother-in-law may never have happened.

So he raped her...!! And even if you go by the other accounts he still raped her..he HID behind the door and every account..why pretend he's not there in order to sneak in the house...And on everything account she put up some sort of fight..and said NO....5 billion times....she didn't kiss him back....and why is he coming to his peers house while he's away.....talk to to his wife ALONE... just thinking she was just gonna give it up...... In this modern day..Let your male friend come to your house on purpose...to see your wife while she's alone.... your gonna want to fight him....and In every account ... he said if you run I'm JUST gonna chase you......What???..He basically saying you might as well not fight...cause you can't out run me..or get me off you... Homey was a dilussional rapist.....He said he didn't Carey on an affair with her..He just slept with her..one time...But then why did he tell her before he raped her..I love you ..You MUST love me....She only met him one time..and the husband stepped in the middle of the conversation....So he CRAZY and rapist.....

Which it shouldn't have done. This film is based on an historical event that happened seven hundred years ago, there isn't possibly any way the filmmakers could know "the truth". They should have left the last chapter titled as "The truth according to Lady Carrouges" and left it at that.

It could be meant ironically because the movie knows you can’t really know

Same I just watched this on a whim, and was blown away. Long movies but it doesn’t miss a breath.

Yes it feels that long . I stopped watching it three times but I did finish the movie.

That scene could have come from a court room today? Are you on crack? Our judicial system is completely different as it has completely shifted form favoring a man's account to a woman's account. Yes, it hinges on the evidentiary, but that is a good thing as we have hoaxes nowadays. Something that could never and would never exist back then as the punishment was a brutal death if not only caught lying, but if some arbitrary pseudo-science and/or religion deems you a liar.

yeah, the rape scene was absolutely harrowing.

Well, I think the purpose of his scene with the whores was to show that Jacques is accustomed to playing this chasing game with women. So when Margarit ran from Jacques at Jean's castle, Jacques - drunk with lust - rationalized it in his head that she was playing the same chasing game; concluding that the affair was consensual (in his mind). Of course, it was, in actuality, rape.

@@drzerogi good point

Yeah as soon as you saw that scene you just knew he did it.

Also interesting to see the positions each of the men performed. Jean does it missionary so Marguerite has pleasure, and Jacques does it from the back to focus on his pleasure.

I found it interesting that Jean allowed the public to know about the rape. Because Jean knew that Jacques was a womanizer and by having the rumor spread, he knew both men and women would find their claims to be somewhat true. Through Jacques already has a bad reputation with women so therefore the rumor would spread faster. It almost kind of resembles the me too movement where women have a better case against a man if more people hear about it and more victims confess via social media etc. It wasn't quite the same but it seems the tactics were the same for its time.

Also in Jeans chapter it is him who saves Le Gris and in the Le Gris chapter he saves Jean.

Go on…

Well... imagine naming a movie "Last Duel" in which final duel doesn't deliver.

Bang on. The movie, while well acted and shot, is a travesty in one regard. The whole point of the book is that while we have a strong hunch about what happened, we can't possibly know "the truth." This movie flies in the face of that central idea. Like as if we could possibly the "the truth" about what happened seven hundred years ago and nothing but some historical records and hearsay.

@@kermitfrog593 Good point, Kermit, concerning the core of the story. The third part, from the view of the wife, portraits her quite triumphant in that she sess through patriarchsim and being clever alla alone (inventing the use of horses for ploughing, in passing). Perhaps we can say, the uncertainty shifted towards the secondary question who is the father, then. - PS. Do you know the novel of Tristan and Isolde where the woman Is smart and cheates in a divine ordeal ?

@@pib2008 The problem with that third part is that it erases nuance and lowers the stakes. If she's in an unhappy marriage, her only benefit of Jean winning the fight is her preserving her life. If she loves her husband (which the filmmakers don't want us to believe she did), the stakes are higher, as she has her own life, husband and child to worry about.

@@kermitfrog593 Oh, I recognized some subteties and a drop height in the third part as made up by the script. At first, Marguerite loves her husband, she's devoted to him and obedient. But irritations occur when Jean is not able to feel any sympathy for her. Be it for her modern clothing, and when he violates her because he wants to be last who had sex with her. Probably, Jean always solely has the preservation of his honour in mind. Left alone, Marguerite tends to oppose him, in words in a passage and with bitter silence during and after the duel. Period circumstances and contemporary individualistic views intermingle in ths portrait. - What a pity, you and me cannot sit and re-watch & review the movie together.

@@pib2008 I don't want to rewatch it, fell asleep the first time. If you haven't tread the book I highly suggest it, way more detail and more compelling story.

The baby is implied to be of the rapist since the husband failed to get her pregnant until she was raped.

@@omaracbabazer9112 the whole "only get pregnant if feel good" thing was fucked up I didn't know they believed that they could basically use that to dismiss any raped woman's claims who was pregnant by saying it wasn't rape

@@crispylizard4348 you do realize some US politicians are still using that explanation until recently right? Check out Todd Akin’s claim of “If it is a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try and shut that whole thing down.” Here we are in the 21st century with people still spewing the same bull shit.

But this is the problem that I have with the film. Why do we assume the wife came out "the victor"? For some reason this film goes to great lengths to portray the wife as living in an unhappy marriage - how do the filmmakers know that? Maybe she loved her husband and lamented his death. If this were fiction they could take whatever creative license they wanted, but to claim their version of events is "the truth" is stupid, and also rejects the central idea of the book, the movie's source material.

I think that’s like a bubble or a round leaf

Correct, you don't pronounce the "s". Usually, "s" at the end of french words is not pronounced.

@Shadow13×. That's it: " LE GREE". Typically name of northwestern France ( Normandy, Britanny), as " LEROUX" , or " LEPERS".

great catch!!

She was raped!!!

3 times in a row 😑

Exactly, the baby being blonde doesn't prove his paternity... I even think Adam driver's son is also blonde (as is his mother) so ...

Well, I see someone wasn’t taught in school about Mendel in science class. Either that or you weren’t paying attention. Dark-haired genes are dominant. So, there’s only about a quarter chance that a child between Le Gris and Marguerite would be blond. So, it’s probably her husband’s child. Again, did you not learn about the genetics squares and the experiments with the pea plants? Good grief. I think she was smiling because 1) she was happy she was alive to see her son grow up despite the horrible position her idiot husband put her in and 2) because she felt completely vindicated by God. Despite her hardship, she felt that her faithfulness was rewarded by God giving her a child with her husband, which is the only thing she wanted.

Lol movie sucked ass

@@robertsaucedo5843 agreed

I think that is exactly what the movie said in a few different places, but especially that scene. I think there was some pathology going on that made him believe his own delusion...and I think a lot of rapists are that way.

Your last point sounds a little bit awkward…

@@drago9000 i was projecting. Its not just the movie, there's more to it. She recently said, "i don't believe that the cold is bad for you. That's just an old wives tale." Smh. Needless to say, we don't get along so I just ignore her.

@@mikefromlighthousesmma1707 smh. hypothermia can set in at temperatures *over* 30 degrees fahrenheit. Imagine standing naked in 10 degree weather. I want to hear you told me cold isn't bad after simply standing there for 5 minutes.

@@mikefromlighthousesmma1707 my point is that you might realize after those 5 minutes that you will literally die if it were to continue. By morning you'd be dead or in critical condition.

'True historical events'? People in glass houses...

Maybe some French actors and not a bunch of American ones

Saying someone is handsome does mean attraction, but just being honest and admitting that a person is good looking it can be any gender. Attraction is more than just appearance

Still awaiting you getting some bitches.

@@SuperHeroNexus 😂 😂😂

Lies. The Truth is God’s Truth hence Jean de Carrouges won the Duel.

@@RENEGADEPINOY671Texas4ever Yes but that still leaves the question who was telling the truth between Jean and Marguerite??? In Jean’s POV he’s a loving husband who’s defending his wife’s honor. In her POV he’s an abusive asshole who only cares about his own pride. Who’s telling the truth? Who’s lying? Frankly it’s up to perception.

True but the Covid didn't help and so did the lack of advertising.

It's similar to King Arthur. That movie was great in my opinion and also flopped at the box office

it's on Hulu and HBO, it will make its money back.

I'd say the biggest difference between this movie and Rashomon is that The Last Duel picks a side. It blatantly states the woman's chapter as "the truth". Rashomon never tells you who's account is correct, if any of them even are.

@@linussage60 True. I was speaking of the point of view vignettes, but still, yes.

Agreed

read the book prole

How was it difficult? Armor worked for the most part, nobles cared about gaining more land more than other frivolous matters, the movie mostly did the period justice.

@@randomnordmann4020 Because the rape scene made my wife uncomfortable. Otherwise everything else was golden. The gore, the history. All of it

He died few years later during the crusades

The people in the movie are French. American women and French women are nothing alie. One will be a good wife and mother the other will ruin you might even drag u to hell

The cinema has been in a decline for years. streaming and costs of going to movies has a huge diffrens and corona has just made it worse.

@@rudolfsteyr5228 too bad... was happy to see that Dune did pretty well in the box office, all considering.

Millennials

Do you mean the scene with Margaret and her son? I watched it over and over and didn't see it.

@@drzerogi look over her left shoulder right around 2:22:40 the car moves from left to right

Its a fly not a car

@@Ironmike2233 I went back and watched it in slow motion. It is a bug of sorts. 👍🏼

Why did you click on the video then lmao? Fucking bozo.

Nah.

I need to see Cry Macho. Might wait for streaming.

Fucking Chad even if he's not Batman

If only they had child murderers to represent democrat politicians.
