this be a strong movie from a historical and epic perspective . while the story be simple it be pure and straightforward . in truth and it be the standard story of a simple and honorable man whose honor come into conflict with the more educated and wealthy men of the period . poor vs. rich and honorable vs. dishonorable and a classic but well told tale without much of the glitz of hollywood stink up the screen . extra point just because you can almost smell the people on the screen . positive .
