Stand and pledge loyalty -- or prepare to lie cold beneath your shields. Chivalrous knight Wilfrid of Ivanhoe is determined to restore Richard the Lionhearted to England's throne. Gallantry and costumed pageantry combine in this crowd-pleasing nominee for 3 Academy Awards including Best Picture. Robert Taylor plays the title role and Elizabeth Taylor and Joan Fontaine also star in a rousing adaptation of Sir Walter Scott's novel. The film's jousting tournament is a galloping display of steed and stout-hearted men. Most spectacular of all is the siege of Torquilstone Castle, a wave-after-wave combat of arrows, fire, boulders, battering ram and blade. To the battlements! Director: Richard Thorpe. One man's efforts to restore Richard the Lion Hearted to his throne provides many beautiful panoramic scenes of the English countryside. Based on Sir Walter Scott's 1819 novel. Academy Award Nominations: 3, including Best Picture.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Elizabeth Taylor is stunning
Yes she is, just stunningly beautiful.
This lusty tale of Sir Walter Scott is all medeval stories rolled into one. It roams not only over countryside but history, bigotry, jousting, family squabbles, slavery and even dips a toe into whichcraft and scorcery.
What a cast and what a transfer, just that sparkling colour that we know so well. Pity the sound is not stero at least, but we cannot have everything.
You will watch again and again, this is a real yarn, spun good and thick.

Ivanhoe review
$6.35
In Alexander Payne's ABOUT SCHMIDT, Warren Schmidt (Jack Nicholson) is retiring from a long, dedicated tenure at Woodmen of the World Insurance Company. Though he is proud of this achievement, he finds some difficulty adjusting to life without work. To make matters worse, his loving wife Helen (June Squibb) passes away, leaving him all alone. He turns to his daughter, Jeannie (Hope Davis), for support, but she is busy planning her marriage to Randall (Dermot Mulroney), who Warren just can't stand. He decides to sponsor a Tanzanian child, Ndugu, through a program advertised on television, and sends elaborate letters to the 6-year-old boy along with his $22 monthly checks. Meanwhile, he sets off on a soul-searching voyage across the west in his new RV.
Nicholson's deadpan voice-over narration, especially in his letters to Ndugu, give ABOUT SCHMIDT a solid balance between comedy and drama. The crux of the film is the daughter's wedding in Denver, where Warren is the guest of Randall's outrageous, new-agey mom (Kathy Bates). Though the funny moments make light of Warren's state in life, the overall feel of the film is a bit ...
