20 Years Later, Did We Judge it Too Harshly? Released in 2005 and directed by Ridley Scott and written by William Monahan, “Kingdom of Heaven” starring Orlando Bloom, Eva Green, Liam Neeson was a box office disappointment and a critical punching bag. But 20 years on, does it deserve a second look? A director’s cut of the film offered a new perspective on the project with 45 minutes worth of scenes restored that was much more well-received by fans and critics alike. Join us as we debate the merits of this Crusades epic, its performances, its message, and whether time has been kinder to this ambitious, flawed, but ultimately fascinating film. We also get into the discussion regarding studio interference and if they should have the final say in the final cut of a film, especially with an auteur like Ridley Scott at the helm, or if creatives should remain the last voice in terms of a film’s final cut before it hits the big screen.
