100 Historical Movies in Order (read rules in 1st post)

19. El Cid (1961): Ends about 1099 A.D.

Oddly enough, there don't seem to be any movies about the First Crusade (unless you count a 1918 silent Italian one).

This leaves us with
20 Kingdom of Heaven (2005)

This deals with the fall of the Kingdom of Jerusalem (1187) and is prior to the Third Crusade, leaving room for Richard the Lionheart and Robin Hood. I might have gone with The Lion in Winter, which is set in 1183, but that is such a boring movie.

21.) ALEXANDER NEVSKY (1938)
Mid-1200s.

Please roll slowly here. There some major titles in the 13th-15th centuries. We can get to the #30s if we're careful.

Good advice, but you rolled right past Genghis Khan---I was looking forward to seeing THE CONQUEROR here!

Well, okay. Fair.
I feel terrible and this is why I don't generally participate in these... I ain't a mind-reader and the stakes are too high!!!
I do apologize.
