Paladins - HISTORY OF ARMS AND LOVE (Paladins - History 's arms and loves - Italy / USA 1983) by Giacomo Battiato
In 1983, in the wake of "Excalibur" by Boorman, comes this delirious pop-medieval (co usa / Italy), directed by Giacomo Battiato, who was also the subject (an unlikely mix of Ariosto and Tasso).
The film, now let's say, is truly ugly, but guarantees a (do not know what would) especially alienating effect, perhaps because of the setting and costumes, which give the film an interesting atmosphere and a-historical and time (at one point there is also a samurai).
The cast is at least unusual: in addition to Barbara De Rossi, Tanya Roberts and Zeudi Araya, we find Ron Moss (!) And Maurizio Nichetti (in its worst interpretation, I believe), along with characteristic names the genre films of the period: Leigh McCloskey, Al Cliver, Hal Yamanouchi and Bobby Rhodes ...
Some ideas are not bad: in an early sequence, Barbara De Rossi (Bradamante) is attacked by a group of bandits losers. Before the three can give vent to their base instincts, there comes a gentleman who makes them (literally) into pieces. She raises the visor of the helmet to see the face of his savior, and under can not find anything. Probably, the most such a scene would not say much ... unless they were always fascinated and obsessed (like me) from that type of phobia, also expressed by J. Lorrain, in the story "The holes of the mask," which leads one to think that, behind a mask, you can hide anything.
Barbara De Rossi, shows the generous backsides (and a pretty sight). Ron Moss, who plays the role of Ruggero buckwheat, is not as bad as you might think, but my favorite remains Ferraù (Tony Vogel), who spits, is the facet of crazy and makes even the gesture of the middle finger in Orlando ...
The setting and costumes (Anna Cecchi) are excellent, even figosi (to put it to the Derek Zoolander).
