""It's a passion of the period; it's a passion of the idea of what drives a person, to pursue his doubts that he has about his faith.""
""Kingdom of Heaven will probably always be timely, if only for its treatise on inner faith.""
Ridley Scott's "Kingdom of Heaven" has been re-evaluated twenty years after its release, previously misunderstood as lacking substance. Premiering post-9/11 during a peak in Scott's career, it features impactful battle scenes and rich details. Central to its narrative is the examination of faith through the character Balian, played by Orlando Bloom, who navigates a personal crisis amid the historical backdrop of the Crusades. Scott himself noted the film's exploration of faith and personal doubts transcends specific historical events, keeping its message timeless.
