Title: Ridley Scott's first is a masterpiece
Review: "The Duelists" is often overshadowed by "Alien" and "Blade Runner", but it is arguably Ridley Scott's finest film. Every single frame is like a painting - the camera soaking up every lavish period detail of this tense drama (adapted from a Joseph Conrad novel) about two Nepoleonic soldiers whose conflict with each other compels to them clash in duels several times over many years. The pacing is elegant, the acting understated and the cinematography is nothing short of breathtaking. "The Duelists" is a stunning film and a timeless classic.
