THE NAME OF THE ROSE in my opinion is the best film ever made. It has been my favorite movie since I was 7 years old. My mom was afraid the dead monks would give me nightmares but they didn't. I fell in love with this movie. I think Sean and Christian (William and Adso) had such great chemistry as teacher and pupil. Besides the fact that it is a great story it shows how delusional the church was and still is today. When the peasants push Bernard off the cliff and he falls on the wagon spokes it makes me wish all those delusional church people were down there with him. They could have toned down the love scene between Adso and the girl but when she is arrested as a witch it makes it more heartbreaking because Adso was physical with her. The girl is not burned but Adso still decides to go with William at the end. It is a shame Remigio was burned at the stake, I love him during the trial scene and he starts screaming he was inspired by the devil to kill the monks because Bernard threatens to torture him. Jorge the blind monk was the real killer and starts munching on the poison book. I could go on and on, but my point is great acting and great story.
am a woman i keep disTance f rom Monks of The Church if roman k. Monks know whaT i do This would be noT allowed nowadays am no very religious woman no mental disorder no religious fanaTism i only believe ThaT God exisT ThaTs all
Great comment, thanks! I agree with everything you're saying here. There's so many layers to this film, even if it (naturally) had to subtract some good meaty bits from the book, like Adso's apocalyptic visions which where only hinted at in the film with the devil statues appearing to move due to shifting shadows. Still, it's barely possible to imagine a better adaptation of a book so complex it may seem nearly as hostile towards adaptation as LotR. But Annaud did it!
This was masterfully made! Nice way to introduce the plot without introducing the conclusion in the same trailer, as so many do! Very excitingly done too!!
Thank you for watching & commenting. I was hoping the bits from late in the movie wouldn't be TOO spoilery. Suffice to say: shit goes down in the finale.
I read that the actor who played Bernard Gui the inquisitor, was insufferable during the making of this movie. He had won a well deserved Oscar for the part of Salieri in "Amadeus" and treated Sean Connery, who despite all his movies had never won an Oscar, like an unimportant extra.
F.Murray Abraham. Great actor despite being a diva on set. Bernard Gui wasnt that evil as the movie portray.A lot of the medieval period, including the Inquisition, is exaggerated in movies
@@sankharaYT There has been a tendency in the academic community to reassess the medieval period, to rehabilitate it to a certain extent and change the view of that time, very conditioned by the Enlightenment narrative that simply qualified it as the "Dark Ages". Each period must be understood in a multifaceted way, with varied nuances. The Inquisition contemplated, for example, the individual's right to defend himself. This was not always a reality in the Roman or Greek criminal procedure, two cultures considered of great civilizational development in general.
@@latitudeselongitudes1932 Yes, I know about the discourse. Especially the point of 'Dark Ages' referring more to a time that was dark in terms of problems of writing solid history due to a lack of sources, rather than 'dark' in a moral sense. For sure it's a bit short sighted to characterize the Middle Ages as these barbaric times when times before or after were just as barbaric. I still don't follow with the idea that the Inquisition wasn't terrible. People were being burned at the stake for being heretics. That's pretty much 100% terrible. No matter whether it happened 100 or 1000 times. Wouldn't you agree?
@@sankharaYT I must confess that I am not an expert on the subject but according to my superficial readings the number of condemnations to the stake was a minority, of course it still seems barbaric to us, just like the Roman method (exalted civilization) of execution by crucifixion. It is difficult to understand these worlds with the eyes of the 21st century. We must consider the metaphysical and ontological universe that anchored these societies, including their legal systems, the nature of man, the typification of the crime, the punishment, its purpose. These people believed in the soul and in the afterlife and in the atoning, purging and redeeming essence of punishment, in the perishness of the body and eternity of the spirit. I am personally fascinated by the art and architecture of medieval churches and monasteries, this is what I retain from that period. I am also fascinated by the eastern medieval period, especially in the Himalayas and South Asia, from the hermit and mystical figures of Padmasambhava and Milarepa to the Shaiva bronze sculptures of the Chola style. Also the Khmer period, the ruins of Angkor Wat. I love Asian art, Buddhist and Hindu sculptures in styles like the aforementioned Chola and also Gandhara, Gupta, Thai, Khmer, Vajrayana, Kamakura, Heian, Tang and Pala, Thangka paintings and frescoes on monastery walls in the Himalayas, architecture in styles like Dravidian, Nagara, Mughal, Rajput , Newari, Dzong, Gompa, Stupa, Pagoda, Wat, Khmer, Javanese-Hindu. I am also very fond of Indian, Afghan, Tibetan and Bhutanese music, Japanese literature and calligraphy, Japanese wood block prints, Japanese and Chinese black ink painting, Japanese theatre, Indian classical dance, Indian miniature painting and Buddhist sand mandalas.
One of my favorite movies. Love the medieval atmosphere
Wow, that's so much better than the actual trailer
Thank you very much! :)
I've been to the actual castle this was filmed in - its very impressive.

Εγώ θέλω να διαβάσω και το επιμύθιο
My favourite book. And the movie? Possibly the best cinema adaptation from a novel that I've ever seen.
burning those books was distressing.
very very good tribute ! best of all of that I see and much better than the official trailer (you turn around spoil but not too much :))

@@latitudeselongitudes1932 Well, even if just half of that is true, Inquisiton leaders were pretty horrible people.

il film è ispirato da un romanzo
di Umberto Eco
" il nome della rosa"
There was no rose, named or otherwise :(
