isnt there a good emdieval movie that taken during italian wars? i forgot what it called one of the old movie
Answering after one year...
- Ermanno Olmi's "il mestiere delle armi" ("The Profession of Arms"), set around 1526 portaying life and death of Giovanni delle Bande Nere (Giovanni de Medici), a famous Condottiero di ventura.
Other italian "historically correct" movies are:
- Pupi Avati's "i cavalieri che fecero l'impresa" ("The Knights of the Quest") even if there are a bitof "fantasy" elements in it, the world around is really medieval
- Pupi Avati's "Magnificat", a collection of stories of different people in Itlay around 1000 a.d.: a dying noble, an executioner, a young married couple, ecc..
Beware! Italian movies are quite.. sloooooow (like french, japanese or chinese movies..) and there aren't great battle scenes, for that you should look for Hollywood movies..
If you want to laugh a bit:
- Mario monicelli's "l'armata Brancaleone" ("for love and gold") and "Brancaleone alle Crociate ("Brancaleone at the Crusades"), portraying the adventures of a shaggy-lookin, half witted , broken noble and his company of followers.
