# YOU DIDN'T SAY IF YOU'VE SEEN THE NAVIGATOR: A MEDIAVEL ODYSSEY
(Or even "The Navigator: A Medieval Odyssey" which is how I think they spell it.) Someone must like the film other than the director's wife.

# Well I liked it but I'm probably biased
Vincent Ward is a tosser and this is one of his less shit films (all downhill from his early work), some nice cinematography I think.
The lead is pretty annoying, but otherwise I like the supporting cast - Marshall Napier is often good and I'm a particular fan of Paul Livingston (arguably more in his comic persona, Flacco).
The cathedral has long been iconic, but even more so since the earthquakes have completely fucked it up in the last twelve months.

At least it's not the abomination that is River Queen

# to be fair to it
the "badly-lit" bits of my laughable "review" are very harsh, and i couldn't pretend the cumbrian bits weren't atmospheric. but i was really disappointed - the internet had lead me to expect a really good film, and i got... a rather confused, underwhelming mess.

i may avoid vincent ward's other stuff though. you're not giving it a good write-up...
