Title: careful -- this is a botched version
Review: So from the descriptions I was led to believe I had purchased the uncut swedish version of this film. Instead what I got was a combination of two films cut into half. the first part is pretty good -- it tells a good story and the acting is reasonably compelling (some very good actors in the cast), esp the young woman who plays Cecilie. Nice settings also. But in the second part it just became AND THEN AND THEN AND THEN with very little explanation of how the plot fitted together.So in my judgment you are far better off reading the original ARN trilogy by Jean Guillou, which is finally available in English. That is a really fine example of historical fiction set in the early middle ages. Fans of that type of historical novel will enjoy the story and the off-beat setting (medieval Sweden).
