The only thing that bugs me here is the loaded pistols being carried in the belt. Even if the shot is well wadded in (a risk in its own right), the ball or powder may come out when tilted down and jostled. You don't point a loaded pistol of their type at the ground. Resting the pistols on shoulders, barrels skyward was much more accurate (ie the shot doesn't fall out). The accuracy is too good, but plausible in the hands of such clear experts.

He only has two.

He heaped hot coals upon his head by showing mercy to him. Now whenever he gets upset he will just burn out.

No - you can check the movie ending in the series I posted , called 'Epilogue'.

They had to stoop to pistols couldn’t even face him with a sword anymore

May be, but d';Hubert also had a badly injured leg; I think he would have been badly outmatched in a sword duel as a result. Pistols seemed logical choice; - but, come to think of it now, it's odd that d'Hubert had a good enough injured leg to still be capable of climbing up into forested hills in this finale scene.

@@BaronsHistoryTimes I see that is helpful context I have seen the movie Prosper I just thought this last battle basically means whoever sees the other first wins it’s seems because of that less skill based and more luck

@@AJJ129 I think it came down to D'Hubert having enough self control to not fire off his second shot quickly and wildly like Feraud did. D'Hubert's added advantage was how he laid down and on a higher level, making him a very small target - little of his body exposed to getting hit. A clever set-up - providing Feraud didn't suddenly appear from another angle :)

I forgot who was a crack shot, i think IRL it was Gabriel Feraud, and Armand d'Hubert knew this. The movie did not convey that, but Armand d'Hubert used Feraud's overconfidence, in the movie, and chose the proper ground where Feraud's advantage would be reduced, uneven ground, and his over confidence would make it d'Hubert advantage. They were equal in swordmanship, but Feraud was overconfident in his greater marksmanship: therefore he lost.

This movie is a way better movie than scotts napoleon

Who would think both movies had the same director !!!! Crazy, isn't it???

First of all, the animal is real. You can see it moving it's horn left to the tree. Second, this was Ridley's first movie and the budget was non existent. A little above 1 million. One of the actors of this movie who has a small role and was famous at the time agreed to receive a case of whiskey/wine as payment because they couldn't afford to pay him. I still think that despite the small budget, this film looks amazing. They did an excellent job.

Pistols was a dumb idea.

real life battle royale..hardcore gg

All this over a sword knot length...

Actually, it started in Madame deLion's salon, where d'Hubert impressed the hostess and Feraud got extremely jealous, particularly because d'Hubert went into the small concert to place him under arrest; a wiser choice would be to wait for Feraud to leave the building first - more discrete. less fuss. I liked this about the movie, as it showed d'Hubert making his own not-so-smart blunders throughout the movie.

It's based on the story of two actual napoleonic officers, who lived in that period, and did indeed duel a number of times. The real guys actually duelled 30 times, I believe.
