LADYHAWKE
"LADYHAWKE" --- (1985) --- MY THOUGHTS: This is one of my favorite movies. It is steeped in the reality of the Middle Ages, yet it is filled with fantasy and magic, which all blends together perfectly. The three leads are excellent, and their characters are somewhat mysterious. There is action and adventure. There is romance and poetry. I hadn't seen it for a while and was glad I chose to re-watch it! What do you like about this movie...if, in fact, you like it!
