@ 15:55 He says here, "...It sounds like our prayers." Not operas. He simply meant that the Muslims prayers were not unlike Christians prayers. This movie may have taken some liberties and various things may not be historically accurate but I LOVE the message of there being at least SOME Muslims and Christians who wanted to get along and did because they perhaps simply realized that even though they took different paths on worshipping God, that they are still fellow human beings. 🥰

Hello there, to help you as a fellow european christian, Templars werent cruzaders, Templars were a professional monk, militar and religious order, Known before as the poor knights of Christ, they were made by few whom wanted to protect piligrims in their journey From Europe to Jerusalem and Vice versa, their journey was dangerous, thousands died each journey, they made pilgrimage to pray for their souls to God, in order for him forgive their sins through their sacrifice, as Jihad and cruzaders were both fanatics, both sides killed many inocents that wanted to live a peacefull life with their families Jerusalem is a sacred place to both Jewish, Muslims and Christians, All wanted to create a kingdom of their own, to protect their faith, After the fall of Jerusalem, a third cruzade was called to take back the city, Richard I of England and Saladin, fought for it and they came with a treaty, Jerusalem would be part of the Fathimid Sultanate ( Saladin's kindom) and in exchange for peace every pilgrim, were to leave weapons outside the city and Saladin himself would garantee their protection in their journey for praying, after that treaty, mutch less pilgrims were killed by the word of Saladin that spread islamic world, aswell that was also acepted by christians wich the praying was enshured, for christians, Templars here in the movie had too mutch power and autonomy but in truth only the King Balduim IV also know as the Lepper King, could call the Templars wich was an elite force, and no other than himself could lead soldiers, besides templars had a strict code of chivalry and piety that wouldnt allow them to do that, only his brother in law and the knights loyal to him and Reynald's men, would do that all by greed and not by faith in those times faith was an excuse for human lives lost, to justify the atrocities, to enrich few. I hope i had clarify the historical matter, by the way king Balduim at age of 16 won an important battle against Saladin, that is why each king respected one another, since they recognized the other as an competent king and a honorable one besides that.

Saladin's brother and King Richard the Lionheart of England became great friends during the 3rd Crusade, despite being enemies. Upon one occasion it is said that Saladin, observing a battle from afar, noted the great skill of one of the warriors and inquired as to his identity. He was informed that it was Richard of England. When Richard was unhorsed during the fighting, Saladin recalled his troops and sent Richard one of his own horses as, "No man who fights so magnificently should fight from foot." A brutal and heroic age, to be sure.

Some historical notes: 1) Guy de Lusignan was indeed an idiot, but the circumstances of his marriage to the King's sister differs. In reality, Sibylla wanted to marry him, despite him being only the younger son of a lesser lord in France. Guy was reputedly a strikingly handsome man, and was known as a very brave knight. Indeed, in his youth he very nearly killed William Marshal, who is considered the greatest knight to have ever lived, and was a close advisor and councillor to five Kings of England, and Regent for a couple years during the minority of Henry III. Anyway, Sibylla and her mother pestered Baldwin until he yielded and allowed the marriage. He regretted it as did the whole Kingdom. Guy leading the army to disaster at the Horns of Hattin in 1187 did happen. However, after the fall of Jerusalem, he was still considered king by some, and he led a faction during the following 3rd Crusade, with Richard I's support. However, eventually a new king was chosen and Guy was compensated by Richard with Cyprus. Guy ruled as King of Cyprus, founding a dynasty that lasted for a three hundred years, until his death in 1194. 2) Raynald de Chatillion was an even worse brigand than depicted in the film. He entered the Middle East during the 2nd Crusade as a mercenary and through cunning and courage, married his way into becoming the Prince of Antioch, a sovereign ruler. But he was a brutal man despised by most. He was captured by the Emir of Aleppo and sat in a dungeon for 15 years because no one wanted to pay his ransom. However, he was eventually released and deprived of Antioch, he was given the important lordship of Oultrejourdain where, as in the film, he behaved like a robber baron, often in the company of Guy. He even once developed a scheme to build a fleet on the Red Sea and sail to Mecca to steal Mohammed's body for ransom. As in the film, his barbarity incited (though he did not kill Saladin's sister) Saladin's wrath who laid siege to Raynold's seat at Kerak Castle and pillaged his domains for a month. It was Raynald who suggested to Guy that he attack Saladin, and thus they were routed at Hattin. As in the film, Saladin' struck off Raynald's head with his sword after the brigand attempted to win Saladin's hospitality by taking Guy's drinking cup. Saladin said: "A king does not kill a king, but that man's perfidy and insolence went too far." 3) Saladin offering Guy his cup is a custom of the rules of hospitality. By offering Guy his cup, he was declaring that Guy could not be harmed and was under his protection. He pointedly did not offer Raynald his cup, and refused to acknowledge Raynald's use of the cup, thus making it clear Raynald had no protection. 4) Tiberias is a character based on Count Raymond III of Tripoli (County of Tripoli in current Lebanon, not Libya). Historically he was a bit less of an honorable person, but he did feud with Raynald and Guy. Unlike the film, he fought at Hattin and some historians believe he was as much to blame for the disaster as Guy. The Muslims thought highly of him: "Nobody more influential than him, none braver and none more excellent in counsel."

Raynald was a TERRIBLE man indeed. But I feel like they did Guy de Lusignan dirty in this movie. He was far from a man of virtue and often did not honor his word after peace treaty's.. But he wasn't this zealous crazy murderer as depicted in the movie. He survived the events in the movie and raised another army and became part of the 3rd crusade after Richard landed with his relief force.

Raynald de Chatillon also invaded and horribly plundered the rich Byzantine island of Cyprus in 1156, along with the Armenian lord Thoros II of Cilicia! In 1158 the Byzantine Emperor Manuel Komnenos led a punitive campaign against him and Thoros with a massive army! The Armenians fled to the mountains and Reynald was left alone and hopelessly outnumbered! He was spared by the Emperor but was humiliated in the presence of Frankish and Muslim dignitaries by being made to prostrate barefooted in front of the Emperor and beg for his life ( the somewhat similar scene in the movie alludes to that historical incident).

Richard wasn't a fanatic and believed in strategy...he wanted to attack Egypt, because Egypt was critical for Salah ad-Din, but the rest of the crusaders were fanatical lunatics who didn't want to listen to reason and logic and strategy and just wanted to attack Jerusalem head-on. Plus, the King of France, Phillip, had gone back home (France and England were eternally at war), which left Richard's kingdom vulnerable to France. France and England had made a momentary peace, and both kings made a pact to crusade together, but the French king broke the pact soon after arriving in the Holy Land and went back home. So Richard decided, screw these lunatics and went back to England as well.

Thank you both so much for watching this! It absolutely made my entire week. Salahuddin was legendary among the Christian nations as a truly honorable man, and was deeply respected by King Richard of England, and especially King Baldwin IV (the leper king of Jerusalem). The crusades were an incredibly violent and tragic time, and the issues which drove the various factions involved were complex. But overall, despite the war and tensions in the Holy Land even today, I truly believe that the Abrahamic faiths are closer to a lasting peace than at any other point in history.

Baldwin IV was a true bad-ass. He did indeed win a celebrated victory over Saladin when he was 16 called the Battle of Montgisard. Baldwin, accompanied by only 500 knights, charged Saladin's army of 20,000, catching them off-guard and utterly routed them. Saladin barely escaped with his life and only 5% of his army made it back to Egypt. It was such a crushing victory that peace followed and was maintained.

Baldwin and Sallahudin were great leaders whose moral code were respected across both camps. The peace they ensured in Jeruzalem, not repeating the slaughter that happened prior to that, was a key factor for their support. Both were mainly driven by peace which also resulted in a better relationship afterwards from the Muslims lifting the ban on Jewish pilgrims to the pact of co-existence between the Church and the Muslim government after both their rule. Considering who runs Jeruzalem now, you'd wish either 1 of them could be brought back to this life. Baldwin respected in the East and Sallahudin respected in the West for their leadership qualities, mercy and perseverance.

It is not very explicit, but in the scene with the bushes on fire, the black knight was actually God. In fact at the very end of the scene the second bush catches fire spontaneously (resembling the Biblical episode of God speaking to Mose through a bush on fire, even mentioned at the beginning of the scene) and the black knight disappears, while they are in the middle of the desert. Also you can see the black knight awakening Orlando Bloom after he fights the knights that wanted to kill him, because God wants him to go back to Gerusalem to save the people. This is to contrast the recurrent theme in the movie where Orlando Bloom says several times that God doesn't speak with him and doesn't know him, and his concluded with the last dialogue between him and Saladin's first knight when he says: "if God doesn't know you, how you were able to do all the things you have done". God (in the figure of the black knight) knew him and was actually speaking to him all the time.

You insert Machiavel in a story that took place 300 years before his time. That means he simply analysed humanity and his writings are the conclusion. Machiavel is no plotter. He's an observer doubled with a concluder, and he happened to master both. He gathered together comprehensive knowledge about how large populations of humans function from a POV that parallels that of chemestry. He intended to give the book as an un-demanded gift to his own ruler, whom he was already the counselor. Nowaday that book is accessible to every ruler, and each of them use it to their own purposes, and the destructive potential resides there. I salute your use of Machiavellian instead of Machiavellic. That proves you know the difference. Something that is rarer than it should.

The European soldiers are all called "crusaders" but the group in white with the red crosses are called "Templars". They were a Holy order of the crusades. However, they were not the only order, as there were other groups like the Teutonic Order and the Order of St. John A.K.A. Hospitallers (what the knight in the black and white was apart of). It should also be noted that while the Templars did wear the white robe with red cross, that was also a common garment for other crusader armies and groups as well (basically not all of the guys in red and white were Templars).

It has more meaning than that. It means as a leader, he recognizes the triviality of the wars. Fighting over a piece of land. The movie is very much a juxtaposition of fanaticism vs normal, rational thinking. At the same time, the world runs on social concepts - for that reason, Jerusalem also represents and is worth everything. It shows a great leader cannot be great, without also questioning the devout and faithful.

18:10 This is called, in french "La Colée". A strike made to the new knight, generally to the face or the neck. In the beginning it was a form of showing that the new knight was tough and could take a hit. With time, it became a religious rite that became the famous move with the sword over the shoulders to make someone a knight. 27:19 In the middle-ages, women of Europe covered their hair just like muslim women do with the Hijab. Elaborated coif like the late medieval hennin, the famous conical hat we see women wear. 31:00 The time of the crusades was not the big "civilisational clash" that classical history made it out to be. Once the crusaders established their fiefdoms in the middle-east, they quickly mixed elements of their own culture with the locals'. In 1108, 70 years before the time of the movie and just 20 years after the beginning of the first crusade, there was the battle of Tell Bacher, opposing, on one side, christian Tancred prince of Galilea and muslim Fakhr al-Mulk Ridwan, against Baldwin II of Jerusalem and Jawali Saqawa. So basically, crusaders and muslims mixed a lot and forged alliances between themselves to assist in their respective internal disputes.

When the costume designer was granted access to a crusader museum in a castle in France, she discovered the actual livery (crest) that Balian of Ibelin wore in the 12th century. So what you see Balian wearing is actually what the real life man wore. Ridley Scott, what a great director. Also, the old box dvd set had special features that gave a lot of background on the actual history and the way it was filmed. This is a great movie.

So the scene with the cup of ice is a little different then you're thinking, it was actually a shared custom between the Arabs and the Franks that you don't kill someone once you've accepted them as your guest (and in some cases you would also be obliged to offer your guests protection). There were several ways of signaling acceptance of someone as your guest but the simplest was the offering of refreshment, whether a simple cup of water from the Lord's own hand or a table of food (In England and France there was also particular symbology given to sharing bread and salt as a symbol you were a guest in someone's house). So by giving the cup of water to Guy, Saladin was making him his guest and sparing his life. Guy tried to manipulate the gesture by giving the cup to Raymond, essentially trying to say "this man is with me and is therefore also a guest" which is why Raymond immediately drank it and said "I drink water for what it is" trying to signal his status as a guest. Saladin of course, was having none of this since Raymond had repeatedly violated his word and attacked his people and pointedly says "I did not give the cup to you" by which he means he is NOT granting guest status to Raymond and is in fact treating him as a prisoner subject to justice for his crimes, justice Saladin subsequently dispenses.

The reason why Salah ad-Din assaults the walls after they are breached is to seek a decisive end to the seige. Like any besieger, he has limited supplies of food and water. So do the defenders, but in this arid environment and with such a huge army, I think supplies are even more difficult for him to come by. Sieges were often contests of starvation and disease when they dragged on for weeks. So even though assaulting was very bloody especially for the attackers, sometimes it was the preferable option to sitting around for weeks while your army atrophies and starves.

Her son he been allowed to live, would have developed the same disease that killed the king. One of the symptoms is a lack of the ability to feel pain hence why she got so worried when he didn't react to the hot wax falling on his hand or being poked in the foot with a needle. His flesh would basically decay and he would become deformed like the king and die an early death. She killed him with poison to prevent that suffering as an act of mercy.

'God does not know me.' From a Christian perspective, it means your relationship with God is broken, you are not praying anymore, you have lost your faith. You may have been brought up a Christian but circumstances/life have made you lose your faith. In Baliol's case, his wife died. You believe God exists, but you are angry with him/alienated from the relationship you should have. Other films which shows this are Signs (M Night Shayamalan) and Dusk Till Dawn (Tarrantino).

​@@christos3280Okay sorry but a little history lesson 1. First off, the first two crusades were a response to the encroaching of the Seljuk turks into Europe (the Moors were not seljuk Turks and were a different sect of Muslim) Yet in both there was a direct route to control Jerusalem under Christian authority Which had nothing to do with stopping the Muslims in the west We see Richard the lion heart at the end of the movie heading off to start the third crusade which had nothing to do with Muslim invaders from Istanbul or the Balkans It was because the pope couldn't stand Jerusalem being in the hands of mulsims In fact neither the third crusade and following were about stopping the Turks but securing the holy land as Christian dominated And they all failed. Richard abandoned the crusade to pillage half of France to make up the money he lost going to the middle east Erico dandillo led the Italians and veninitions on tne fourth crusade and then used it as pretense to sack Constantinople and never once went to the holy land And the rest of them failed, and were mass slaughtered by the Turks and the Muslims permenantly.

36:10 - At that time, there was an established Roman Catholic Kingdom of Jerusalem (founded after the First Crusade), whose ruler at the time, in which this film takes place, was Baldwin the Leper King. All these knights are from Europe, but the specific ones who strive for war in this film are the Templars. This order was the wealthiest one, and it was officially dissolved in the early 14th century (the last grand master of the Templar Order Jacques de Molay was burned in France in 1314). The Crusaders (including the Templars), participated in crusades against Muslims or to retake the Holy Land from the Muslims. They are all knights from Europe, i.e. crusaders, but they are from different orders or from none of them (just lone knights). Crusaders ≠ Templars, but Templars were part of the Crusaders.

I think Salah ad-Din killed Renard de Chatillon, because he knew he was responsible for the killing of his sister. Also: To be protected by the laws of hospitality, one has to be offered hospitality first. By offering the cup of ice to Guy de Lusignan, he offered him to live, protected by the law of hospitality. Renard was not offered the drink, but took it, disrespecting the custom. Being the murderer of Salah ad-Din's sister, he was doomed to be killed anyway. As king, Salah ad-Din could not let him live and still command the same respect of his followers.

It’s a bit more complex than that.

But this film will always have a place in my mind and my heart because the director took the trouble to exalt the wickest passions of humankind, but also a glimpse of shared values between warriors of both faiths (Christians & Muslims), all of them from the nobility, to follow norms of shared conduct: *the Code of Chivalry.* Listening to you speak, dear Habibi brothers, I conclude that we as Christians are as unknown to you, Muslims, are you are to us.

The knights in the white with red crosses are the Knights Templar. They are warrior "monks". They grew powerful in Europe during the crusades by creating the first banking system. Their job was to protect the pilgrims during their travels to the Holy Land. The ones in the black with white crosses are the Knights Hospitalars. They were responsible for protecting the pilgrims and setting up hospitals throughout the Holy Land. They were 2 of the 3 warrior branches in the Roman Church. The third branch was the Teutonic Knights. This movie portrays the Knights Templar as the bad guys but during the crusades, they were considered to be the "Special Forces" of the ancient world. They were not permitted to surrender.

Ibn Fadlan's writings are actually one of the best sources we have for how the Rus Vikings lived.

My second complaint is the way the director made the Christian’s look like the antagonists full of betrayal and schemes when in reality Baldwin’s family and cabinet relied on him so much that by the end of his life everyone’s incompetences and impatience shined as bright as the sun ☀️ lol.

I love its portrayal of Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub and King Baldwin IV, both were reasonable men in unreasonable times, trying to deal with the radicals in on their own sides while maintaining justice. At the end of the day, Jerusalem is just a city. It served its purpose when God needed it to, but now it is no longer required for anything. Anyone anywhere can find God now. And it isn’t God that has confused His purpose, men have. When we are before God, all confusions will be clear, and the truth will be made apparent for everyone. I have no doubt that anyone who came to believe in God and his Word, whether it be Christians, Muslims, Jews, etc will be saved once God makes everything clear to us at the end.

The part when his father slaps him when making him a knight and Balian slapping the young man later when doing the same thing is a real thing from history. When someone was made made a knight the would kneel in front of the King or Noblemen who knighting them, they would make a path to protect the weak and women and defend the Church. They then would be given a new sword, a belt with the scabbard (the sheath for the swodd)that the sword would be held in when not in use and would have silver spurs attached to their boots(spurs are used to prick the sides of the horse when riding to go faster). Then the person performing the Ceremony would slap the new Knight across the face an tell him let that be he last time someone hits no without him hitting them back. In the 16th century this was slowly changed to tapping the new Knight on each shoulder with the blade of a sword which is something still done by the English King when making someone a Knight which is now used as a way to honour someone who has done service to the country

His head is in the pile at the end of the lost battle, he's not an angel.

2:18 of the DC bluray. Balian and Tiberius inspect the battlefield, Tiberius warns Balian that he has 4 or 5 days at most and leaves for Cyprus. Balian looks at the pile of heads and it zooms in to show the head of the Hospitaler.

I think the Crusaders used Dome of Rock as their Palace, that’s why Salahadin is praying in the Throne Room of Jerusalem.

They were all crusaders, amd some were monks. Red and white guys were templars, knight monks, the black cloaks with the white crosses were hospitaliers, also knight monks, but their oath was to protect travellers to Jerusalem. Their name comes from the french for hospitality and is also the source of the word hospital. They actually ran most of the hospitals in the holy land, and would fight just as hard as any of the other monastic knights. There's pilgrims just visiting, and then there's crusaders who came specifically to fight, and might join the army of baldwin or some monastic order.

1:28:35 That was supposed to be the king Richard Lionheart. He later fought against Saladin and, and practically defeated him, until the French king stabbed him in the back, attacked his realms in Europe and forced him to leave the Holy land. Originally he planned to attack and re-conquer Jerusalem. He was even arguably in a position to successfully achieve that. But before he left, he made an agreement with Saladin that allowed Christian pilgrims to safely travel to Jerusalem, so he left with his quest half-completed. But if it wasnt for him, all the remains of the Holy land would be captured by Saladin. And due to Richard´s victories, the holy land lasted another almost 100 years after Richard died, and 104 years since the battle of Jerusalem.

A Crusader is anyone who takes up the cross - goes on crusade to remit their sins. The original Crusaders of the 1st Crusade -approx. 100 years before, had now founded kingdoms in Outremer and were essentially a confederation of local Lords under the King of Jerusalem. When you are surrounded by enemies it makes sense to make peace with them, trade, adopt their customs etc. 'New' Crusaders coming in full of ignorance and zeal, along with a few fanatics, could easily upset this balance, which is what is happening here.

Regarding the "what does Jerusalem mean", Saladin's answer is reallyhevy of sense, he first says "Nothing" because the city itself does not mean anything to him personnaly, but then says "Everything" besause as a symbol, a key city, it gives himp political and religious influence, and confirms his position as leader

The red/ White guys are Knights Templar - warrior monks. The character in black and white - the blond guy in the first half of the film, is a Knight Hospitaller, another military order of warrior monks. There was rivallry between the two, and they were important politically. The portrayal of them in the movie is not entirely fair - they were essentially the best strategists and warriors, though politics got in the way and sometimes they would tend to give conflicting councils.

King Baldwin IV was a leper. That was the disease that ate him alive. His nephew’s immunity to pain is a sign of leprosy as well, which is why they were so upset to see that he was immune to pain.

Salah ad-Din is a revered figure amongst all with even a vague understanding and knowledge of history. What's less known, is that he wasn't an Arab. He was a Kurd whose family originated from present day Armenia. He was a brilliant general and diplomat, as well as a man of great generosity. He and Richard I (Coeur de Lion, or Lionheart) never met face to face, but shared a great mutual respect. If only such men ever found themselves on the same side... والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته Please excuse the Arabic, if it is improper. I used Google translate. Nothing but the sincerest respect intended.

The scene between Baldwin always gets me. They are leaders of opposing sides but still show each other the greatest of respect.
