| | Tristan And Isolde | |
Description
After the fall of Rome, the warlords of England are brutally kept in line by
the forces of Irish King Donnchadh. One of these leaders, Lord Marke (Rufus
Sewell) seeks to unite the English tribes to form one strong nation to rule
itself. His greatest knight is Tristan (James Franco), whom Marke raised since
he was orphaned in an Irish attack that also took Marke's family. With Tristan
by his side, Marke believes he can unify his people and rid England of Irish
rule. But Tristan harbors a terrible secret.
Wounded and left for dead after battle, he is nursed back to health by Isolde
(Sophia Myles), a mysterious Irish beauty who hides him from her father, King
Donnchadh's, forces and brings him back to life. But their passionate affair is
cut short when Tristan must return to England, not knowing if he will see Isolde
again.
Still seeking to throw the English tribes back into chaos, King Donnchadh gives
away his daughter as the prize in a tournament between all the champions of
England. Tristan wins the princess' hand for Lord Marke, whose vision of a
united England may finally be realized. Tristan is horrified to see that the
woman he has won for his Lord, the woman whom Marke will marry, is his Irish
savior Isolde. Worse, Marke is a good and worthy future king, whose belief in
Tristan has made the young knight who he is.
First separated by countries at war, and now by loyalty to King and country,
Tristan and Isolde must suppress their emotions for the sake of peace and the
future of England. But the more they deny their passion, the more fiercely it
burns. Despite their efforts to stay apart, Tristan and Isolde are driven
inexorably together, risking everything for one last moment in each other's
arms....
