Review of The Last Duel (2021) by Tvjerry — 05 Nov 2021
Matt Damon and Adam Driver play squires and best friends, until Driver’s character rapes his friend's wife (Jodi Comer). In 14th century France, the only way to settle this accusation is the titular showdown (which is a truly gripping encounter).
The story is told 3 times, from the perspective of each of major characters. The script by Damon, Nicole Holofcener and Ben Affleck (who also plays a main character as a blonde) creates the conflict with depth.
Director Ridley Scott’s skills with grand battles and bigger-than-life storytelling are in full glory. Add solid performances all around to make this a compelling historical epic.
