great scene, from a great movie, with a stellar cast, that suffered at the box office, due solely to being released too close to Braveheart.

fencing happens to be one of my favorite sports. i fence foil, mostly. the tactics and pacing in this scene are brilliant.

helluva pick, choggie.

The fop would have won if he hadn't wasted his opportunity by being cocky. Alas, such is the fate of many villains.

I think this deserves a spoiler in the title for people who haven't seen the movie.

Tim Roth was such an excellent baddie in this film. You SO wanted Rob Roy to dice him up like Hannibal Lecter.

This might be the best sword-fight ever captured on film. Certainly is my favorite.

Interesting you bring up Hannibal Lecter. Brian Cox (who was in Rob Roy) was the original, and still the best actor to play the role in "Manhunter" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091474/. His Hannibal Lecktor was menacing and chilling- much more so than Anthony Hopkins in my opinion. Tom Noonan as the serial killer "The Tooth Fairy" was positively terrifying and utterly convincing.

Now, as for Videosift's very own crazed killer, I wonder how @choggie is doing these days?
