Ridley Scott's NAPOLEON
I love it. MOAR Ridley doing period pieces.



Quote:
During Monday night’s Sony presentation at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, the studio revealed the first footage ever of Ridley Scott’s epic from Apple Original Films. Directed by Scott from a screenplay by David Scarpa, Napoleon stars Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix as the French emperor and military leader Napoleon Bonaparte.

Rothman noted that an epic tale of this scale has not been seen in years.

Indeed, the footage shown supports that notion. The moody scene takes place on a snowy battle field, as Napoleon led enemy troops onto a frozen lake, and then proceeds to rain cannon fire down as soldiers fall into the water, bodies and blood mixing. Napoleon stands from a hilltop, watching his carnage unfold. (For those curious, Phoenix does not seem to be speaking in a French accent in the film.)

“Epic is the only proper description of that Apple Original Film,” Rothman said after showing the scene.

The film is said to be an “original and personal look at Napoleon’s origins and his swift, ruthless climb to emperor, viewed through the prism of his addictive and often volatile relationship with his wife and one true love, Josephine, played by Vanessa Kirby.” Tahar Rahim, Ben Miles, Matthew Needham and Ludivine Sagnier round out the cast.

I don't understand. I thought all new movies were superhero/Marvel stuff.

I can’t even think of another Napoleon movie. Seems like an under used figure. I’ll be excited for this.

there was one late 70s/early 80s, which was quite significant for the scope of the battle scenes and a wonderful performance by the guy who played napoleon

ridley can do better

Waterloo was a pretty good one with Rod Steiger as Napoleon and Cristopher Plummer as Duke of Wellington. Even Orso Wells as King Louis whatever #.

Waterloo was one of the great historical movies ever created. Up there with "A Bridge To Far" and "Tora! Tora! Tora!".

GI Jane and Exodus: Gods and Kings would disagree.

But the guy's hit rate is pretty unparalleled. And I even thought movies like Kingdom of Heaven and Robin Hood were solid flicks.

He's routinely hits the mark on his sci-fi and historical fiction movies. Combine that with a REALLY compelling (and has been noted, underutilized) central character and this movie could/should be awesome.
