I had seen bits and parts of this movie before, but when I saw it in Blu-Ray at a bargain price I thought that I would give it another look as I was not impressed with the first look. And I'm glad I did because it was much more interesting when I could devote more attention to what was going on in the story. I picked up a more historical view of this character than I did before regardless of if it was actually true or not. But it did give the movie a much deeper meaning, a meatier story. I would definitely suggest this movie to be watched by others. Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett were very good!
