Centurion film

I watched the film: Centurion yesterday. A friend raved about it. It wasn't as good as he said, but still good and enthralling. It's about what could have happened to the Ninth Roman Legion which disappeared in Pictland (in Scotland.) It's told from the point of view of a centurion who is the only soldier to survive. The Picts are pretty scary;  the scenery magnificent. There is a sense of menace maintained throughout, helped by some eery music.

 

The Pict huntress.

A woman warrior.

Of course, to my annoyance, the three women in the film are all young and attractive, even the witch.

I thought the huntress was one of the more interesting characters. I would have liked to see a story more focused on her.

Yes, I thought her the most interesting character in the film. Frightening too.
