VHS Movie Reviews of Ivanhoe (1982) [VHS]
Movie Review: IVANHOE DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I enjoyed this video when it was first out on Public Broadcasting and was glad to see it on DVD. It's a great interpretation of Sir Walter Scott's classic story of knights and social mores of the Middle Ages. Anthony Andrews was my favorite then and with this new DVD, it brings the story back to life. For those who like the classics told in a way that relates the time that era, they would enjoy this tale very much.
Summary of Ivanhoe (1982) [VHS]
This 1982, 180-minute television remake of the original MGM feature, produced 30 years before, is the rare makeover of a classic that works quite well under its own steam. Anthony Andrews plays the disinherited knight who returns from the Third Crusades and is determined to raise the ransom to free a kidnapped King Richard (Julian Glover). With his bid rebuffed by his estranged father (Michael Hordern), and the affection of the latter's ward, Rowena (Lysette Anthony), compromised, Ivanhoe looks toward the generosity of the beautiful Rebecca (Olivia Hussey)--whose father (James Mason) he rescued from anti-Semitic Normans--for help. But a plot by faithless friends to discredit Ivanhoe, and his subsequent partnership with Robin Hood (David Robb) to save the day, keep this story from slowing down even for a minute. Originally a miniseries, this production has enough breadth to provide lots of breathing room for the script and cast to mine all the drama they can from Sir Walter Scott's novel. This is also a great-looking movie, with wall-to-wall pageantry, superb costumes--the works. --Tom KeoghAction & Adventure VHS Video
