In medieval times, during the reign of King Arthur, the legend of Tristan and Isolde takes place, which is told in this film full of daring action and romance. Director Kevin Reynolds and writer Dean Georgaris brought the classic legend to the screen. It is rated PG-13 for numerous fight sequences and some brief sexuality, but is still suitable for most audiences. In 125 minutes, you can enjoy many deadly battles and tantalizing romantic scenes. Reynolds did a wonderful job recreating the love story of the Irish king's daughter, Isolde, played by Sophia Myles, and Tristan, played by James Franco, from an English tribe and enemy of the Irish. During a breathtaking battle, the daring and courageous Tristan is extremely injured and is thought to be dead, so they throw him into the ocean. Ironically, he is not dead and Isolde, alone, finds him on the sandy beach, barely alive. With the help of her servant, Isolde nurses him back to health and during this time they fall madly in love with each other. Isolde misleads Tristan into thinking she is someone else during the time he spends with her. She also discovers that she is promised marriage to the man who has continually helped her father over the years. He is also the man Tristan killed in a battle, in a fight that left them both near death, but only the other man died. Tristan has to return to his own country and cannot be seen by any of the Irish, so he leaves quickly. When he returns, he discovers that the Irish king, Donnchadh, wishes to throw the English tribes into chaos. He therefore organizes a tournament between the English, to fight among themselves. The prize is his daughter. Tristan wins the hand of the princess for Lord Marke, who wishes to unite all the tribes. Isolde, who sees the fight and thinks that she can now marry Tristan, rushes to him and says: “I am yours, I am all yours. » Tristan is horrified to see that the woman he is winning for Marke is Isolde, and she is equally devastated. . Worse still, Marke is a good and worthy future king, whose belief in Tristan has made him the young knight he is. First separated by countries at war, and now out of respect for king and country, Tristan and Isolde must remain separated..
