Episode 59: The 13th Warrior featuring Alice Ebenhoe

Alice Ebenhoe is back and has brought in another historical adventure film: The 13th Warrior (1999).  This one stars Antonio Banderas and pretty much nobody else, though it was directed by McTiernan and is based on a Crichton novel. It’s a plausible (but fictional) retelling of the origin of the epic poem Beowulf from a spectator’s point of view. Audiences didn’t take to a film whose main character isn’t the story’s main character, but it certainly is an entertaining revisit for the panel.  It’s full of laughs and we have our first tiebreaker, so tune in
