Kingdom of Heaven

Director: Ridley Scott
Cast: Orlando Bloom, Eva Green, Jeremy Irons, David Thewlis, Brendan Gleeson, Marton Csokas, Liam Neeson, Edward Norton

Ridley Scott directed this epic-scale historical drama inspired by the events of the Crusades of the 12th century. Balian (Orlando Bloom) is a humble French blacksmith who is searching for a reason to go on after the death of his wife and children. Balian is approached by Godfrey of Ibelin (Liam Neeson), a fabled knight who has briefly returned home after serving in the East. Godfrey informs Balian that he is his true father, and urges the blacksmith to join him as he and his forces journey to Jerusalem to help defend the holy city. Balian accepts, and he and Godfrey arrive during the lull between the Second and Third Crusades, in which the city is enjoying a fragile peace.

Both Christian and Muslim forces are temporarily in retreat, thanks to the wisdom of the ChristianKingdom of Heaven 3 monarch King Baldwin IV (Edward Norton), his second-in-command Tiberias (Jeremy Irons), and Muslim potentate Saladin (Ghassan Massoud). Violent agitators on both sides are foolishly eager to end the peace in a bid for greater power, and Saladin bows to pressures from Muslim factions; Godfrey is one of a handful of brave knights who has thrown his allegiance behind Baldwin IV and his community of diversity, and Balian joins him as they use their skills as warriors in a bid to build a lasting peace. Kingdom of Heaven also stars Eva Green as the princess Sibylla, David Thewlis as Hospitaler the priest, and Brendan Gleeson as Reynald.

One day, on his way to the park to meet his girlfriend Emma, he becomes distracted by a motor car beside the park gates. He puts himself in immediate good graces with the driver who, while refueling, forgot to activate the parking brake – something Alexander does quickly when it threatens to get out of control. While walking in the park with Emma (Guillory), Alex proposes to her. The romantic moment is short-lived; a robber emerges from nearby bushes and holds a gun on them.

During the struggle that follows, the gun goes off and Emma is fatally wounded, dying in Alexander's arms....
