Movie review.
The Seventh Seal with Max von Sydow. Youtube.
Set in Medieval Sweden during the Black Death a Returned Crusader, his squire and a troupe of mummers meet Death.
The story is about life, life is a mirror of our soul.
4.5 hobbits
I should add this is art, has been incredibly influential, often referenced in other movies and nearly every scene is an image we all know
About mummers ( medieval travelling actors) . If your name is King, Knight or Priest or some other title or religious title you probably had an ancestor who was a mummer who had that role in Passion Plays. I think I had an ancestor who played such a dramatic role.
