For historians, Brits AND FRENCH! La tapisserie de la reine Mathilde fait partie de notre patrimoine et Guillaume fur duc de Normandie avant de conquérir la Grande Bretagne.

It's pretty cool even though the film music is a bit over the top IMO.

Oops, and I knew that!! (My English teacher back in the day was fascinated by the Middle Ages, so we got all the history etc.)

The film music is terrible! I did like the horses and the battle noises. And it's splendidly done. The choice of music could be better, but it's very well executed.
