The Navigator: A Medieval Odyssey

Haunting
I first saw this movie sometime in the 1990's. I stumbled across it in a video store and the outline seemed weird but interesting. No one I know had heard of it or seen it. I put it into the vcr, turned it on, and for the runtime of the movie was utterly captivated.

This is a drama with comedic elements, religious sentiment, awe, wonder, terror. The cinematography is stunning, the focus is on humanity - ancient and modern. How we're not so different even with our technology. Etc.
But bottom line, what this movie is - is utterly unforgettable. It's haunted me ever since I saw it. For a great many years I forgot the name of it, but the faces and story never left me. Then the internet came along and I found it again.

See this movie. You must see this movie - quite possibly one of the finest science fiction/fantasy movies ever made.

The Navigator; A Medieval Odyssey
This movie begins in the 14th century England. The problem with this movie is the shooting of this movie. It is very dark, no literally, the movie is filmed in a dark black in white, and transition to some what dark, kind of color. This is the distraction of the fantasy odyssey. If you can follow this, than it is not such a bad fantasy movie. It's not your DVD or your Blue Ray or your player, it the way the film was filmed!
