Favourite 80s Fantasy films 1/?: Ladyhawke {1985}
“Do you know that hawks and wolves mate for life? The Bishop didn’t even leave us that… not even that.”
#i think one of the reasons #ladyhawke #is so restful to watch is that unless philippe is actively on screen mid-grift and babbling #it has long stretches with no dialogue #just lots of long set up landscape shots and travelling montages #and beginnings of scenes that take 30 seconds before anyone talks #no one in this movie is really a talker except philippe #he’s surrounded by really quiet people #and the huge skies of northern italy #and prog rock

“That’s a nice song,’ said young Sam, and Vimes remembered that he was hearing it for the first time.
“It’s an old soldiers’ song,“ he said.
“Really, sarge? But it’s about angels.”
Yes,
thought Vimes, and it’s amazing what bits those angels cause to rise up
as the song progresses. It’s a real soldiers’ song: sentimental, with
dirty bits.“As I recall, they used to sing it after battles,“ he said. “I’ve seen old men cry when they sing it,” he added.
“Why? It sounds cheerful.“
They were remembering who they were not singing it with, thought Vimes. You’ll learn. I know you will.
