More vid-browsing, and I found a compendium of one of my favourite things: sword fights in movies. To my surprise, I've seen all of the movies but two, and now I want to see Hitman.
Every time I thought, "But they left out...", that was the next movie featured. But they did leave out things I thought should be included:
Aragorn's fight with the Nazgul on Weathertop in The Lord of the Rings; Arya's first meeting with Syrio and the later scene where Syrio fights the Lannister men in The Game of Thrones; the duel between Hamlet and Laertes in the Branagh Hamlet...
Are there other good sword movies I should know about?
On my wishlist of dream movies: a really good filmed version of The Priviolege of the Sword by Ellen Kushner. And if the movie-makers wanted to preface it with a really good version of Swordspoint, I wouldn't mind.
