I first saw this movie around twenty years ago and then almost a decade later, by serendipity, saw this part when I switched the television on. When I went to sleep the scene stayed in my mind. There is something about the glittering snow, the glittering sun, and the glittering sword, that makes it mesmerizing. And of course the soundtrack.
The movie is Ladyhawke and it is free of vulgarity, free of homosexual relationships, free of relying on gore for sole content value, etc. Its motif is the normal relationship between men and women that is usually under the auspices of religion and grounded in commitment.
Has feminism accelerated the trend for the downfall of normal movies with themes like this one?
