You want to see decent swordsmanship in film watch some of the particularly old films with Christopher Lee and his generation of actors (particularly the fellow Englishmen) - they knew how to actually fence (and in Lee's case as a veteran how to fight in general) prior to acting so there was far less to fake.

I've been watching these clips today in covid lockdown (knew of the show but never watched) and have been noticing a lot of familiar, talented faces from recent film. Looks like Sharpe gave a lot of people a springboard into their careers. Not just Sean Bean, who's been a favorite of mine since childhood. He was already in movies I loved, playing good & bad guys, but when I saw him in Lord of the Rings he was a perfect actor for that character, & I shed a tear when he died so heroically.

"You won't die from a bullet up the bum." Well, he very well might. Any penetrating gun shot wound at this time would be extremely dangerous due to the risk of infection, especially if you are shot in a body part covered by clothes, because the bullet will take with it fragments of the fabric and drag them deep into your body, plus the wound is way too high for an amputation to stop the infection from spreading.

@Andy Man It's not a comparison between training and brute force, both of which play a more or less equal role when it comes to a swordfight. it's a comparison between two different styles, one of which aims to overwhelm the opponent quickly with physical strength while the other emphasises the maneuvers intended to outlast the opponent. Sharpe should favour the former as it is much more practical on a battlefield where you are liable to face multiple opponents in quick succession, whereas the latter is more suited to the duel and is as much to dazzle the spectators as to win the fight.

Fine court swords that will draw blood on the arms or face but are not normally lethal, at that point the duel is ended. Pistols is more like "brave enough to face a shot but smart not to do so." A proper duel gives honour to both people.

The first guy was quite convincingly played. And the duel was interestingly staged to show their skill matched but Sharpe being consistently over-powered by the larger heavier man.

"Just knock the shite out of him, sir."

😂😂😂😂 He shot me in the ass!

Ow, something bit me!

Toby Stephens is known for engaging in sword duels and getting a bit too emotional hey?

Meanwhile Ong Bak standing in line back there wishing he could teach these foos a thing or two

I'm sad to say I haven't seen the two set in India. Was that first duel from _Challenge_ or _Peril_ (the one with, I'm assuming, Dodd)?

In Spain and Latin America they fought duels well into the 20th century. And in France, there was one as late as 1967.
