The Directors Cut + all the bonus features
First off, Kingdom of Heaven the Directors Cut is an amazing film which you likely already know and many of you reading this have probably seen the movie many times and are wondering how this re-release fares. Many people have written great reviews regarding the content of the movie and they are much better writers than I so I am going to mainly comment on other things about the Blu-ray.For many years, the majority of the behind the scenes features and bonuses were not available on Blu-ray. They were only available on the DvD 4 disc special edition (which I own and its an amazing collectors edition). Well with this Ultimate/Anniversary Edition (my cover art says Ultimate edition rather then Anniversary), you get the original cut of the film, a roadshow version (which adds a short introduction by Ridley Scott and some intermission breaks like old school films had) and all of the previously released special features from the Director's Cut DVD and the Theatrical Cut DVDs.There is a huge amount of behind the scenes stuff regarding all aspects of the film which they made into a 2.5 hour long documentary and there is even more than that. It is very interesting if you are into that type of thing.The movie looks and sounds amazing in 1080p and 5.1 DTS-HD Master audio. The documentary and other special features are in SD quality unfortunately, though they do look a bit better here than they did on the DVD version.

A while back I wrote Ridley Scott the following Fan letter. As I love the movie, I thought I would share it with you. It pretty much says everything I might want to say about the film.

TO: RIDLEY SCOTT
This is a thank you note; a thank you for KINGDOM OF HEAVE: DIRECTOR’s CUT. And I thank you because there have been times when things have gotten so bad, either personally or professionally that I just wanted to say chuck it. But then I would put on TKOHDC and three hours and 15 minutes later things wouldn’t seem quite so bad. In short, your film has gotten me through some tough times and for that I am very grateful.

A number of years ago I cornered Elia Kazan outside the Russian Tea Room and for one hour railed on about how much a film he had made—vilified by the critics and ignored by the public—had meant to me. Literally, it was probably the greatest influence on me during my college years regarding the path I would choose for my life. He stood there with a slight smile as he was obviously enjoying this display of passion. In fact, as we parted he told me with a pat on my shoulder that “You made my day.”

One of the things that I said to Kazan in that verbal barrage—and I remember it well, because it had never occurred to me before the moment I spoke it. I said that films by Bergman and Antonioni (Both great filmmakers) were very cerebral. Therefore, easy for critics to figure out as they were like puzzles. This means that. This means this and 7 plus 7 equals 14. But Kazan’s films were not cerebral; they were visceral and dealt with complex emotions in a highly emotional manner that critics and even the public sometimes had a tough time incorporating. In other words, unless you have experienced these emotions it is impossible for one to understand them, as emotions are impossible to understand on a purely cerebral level. Walt Whitman has written extensively about the limitations of language and this is what I was trying to tell Kazan. More on this later.

I like to call TKOHDC Ridley’s Scott’s LAWRENCE OF ARABIA. And there is a reason for this. Both films tell the story of men who during the course of the films come to understand who and what they are. With Lawrence he sort this as he believed, “I cannot fiddle, but I can make a great state from a small city”: and in a sense he did just that. With Balain—as with EL Cid—circumstances set him on that road; a road that he would never had thought to travel. Although he would never have chosen this path on his own, but remaining true to himself, found what he had lost and in the process who he was. “If God does not Love you, how could you have done all things you have done.”

Both films tell their tail on an epic scale during watershed moments in history and both films play lose and fast with certain facts while being truthful in their overall look at history. In addition both films are among the most beautiful ever made. Each film frames is a painting.

But there is a difference between the two films and that difference is integral. At the end of LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (despite it being one of the great feats of film making as those four hours literally force one to experience what Lawrence experiences) Lawrence doesn’t like what he has discovered about himself and so LAWRENCE OF ARABIA is essentially something of a downer both for Lawrence and the viewer. In short, life pretty much sucks in that film.

At its end TKOHDC has the opposite effect. Balian reluctantly realizes that he likes what he has discovered about himself. In addition rediscovers the life in himself what he thought had withered away when his wife committed suicide and his first child was stillborn.

Thus in a sense TKOHDC is a philosophical argument about the nature of life and how it is lived. And the film supports that argument so forcefully and persuasively, that no matter how many times I watch the movie—and it is approaching 50—(what can I say, I have a lot of downs in my life) I cannot find a hole in it which is why it is always so uplifting. It is not a cheery film by any means—as the truth is never cheery—but uplifting as the film presents a transcendental truth often hard to see but which makes life bearable even in the worst of times. In short, your film, unlike LAWRENCE, is life affirming.

I brought up the Kazan business because KOHDC is not a cerebral movie. It is a film that works almost entirely on an emotional level. From the moment we first see Balian—his face expressing true happiness then fading to overwhelming grief—to the end as Balian observes the buds and looks up at Sibylla, the same happiness on her face which had once been on his. In fact, the film works on such an emotional level that, for me at least, I experience those emotions while watching it. Therefore, they are not pieces of a puzzle or a formula that adds up at end. You present real emotions in a manner that tapped into emotions that I have felt. Therefore, I knew exactly what I was watching; knew it so well, because I could feel it. And in feeling it, by films end I am always convinced—on a purely emotional level—that as bad as things may be, I will get over it as long as I allow life to take its course. And that truth, presented in highly emotional terms, is what gets me though.

I promised I would keep this short although I could go on for pages about all the things I love about the film. But suffice to say that, for me the casting is perfect. As LAWRENCE was for Peter O’Toole, TKOHDC will be for Bloom. It is his greatest film work and nothing before or since has even comes close. Unfortunately Eva Green is now typecast as weirdo but before this, she was perfect casting for your film. And I have no idea why Edward Norton didn’t want a credit. He expresses a complete character just with the movements of his head and hands. It is amazing piece of acting much like what John Hurt accomplished in THE ELEPHANT MAN.

As I mentioned, I could go on and on but I promised to be short.
Again Thank you
Joseph Egan

The Film's Historical Background:

The movie opens in France, 1184 AD. Knights of the Second Crusade (1147–1149), pursuing the Roman Catholic Church's holy war against Islam, had captured the city of Jerusalem and established a Christian kingdom. A fragile peace was in effect, through the cooperative efforts of Jerusalem's enlightened "Leper King," Baldwin IV (1161–1185), and the "Saracen" (non-Arab Muslim) sultan, Salah ad-Din ("Saladin," 1137–1193).

Saladin was a Kurdish Sunni Muslim of the Ayyubid Dynasty, who led the military campaigns against the Crusaders in the Levant (countries surrounding the eastern Mediterranean Sea). At the time of Saladin's death, the Ayyubid Sultanate had conquered Egypt, Syria, Upper Mesopotamia, the Hejaz, Yemen, and other parts of North Africa.

In 1174, Jerusalem-born King Baldwin IV had gained fame at the age of 13 by successfully attacking Damascus, drawing Saladin away from his assault on Aleppo. Two years later, Baldwin organized a campaign against Saladin's power-base in Egypt, defeating the Saracens at the Battle of Montgisard in 1177. The Egyptian army had been commanded by Saladin's nephew, Taqi ad-Din. Saladin made his escape to Egypt on a racing camel, with only a tenth of his army surviving. As a result of Baldwin's subsequent victories at Belvoir castle, Beirut, and Kerak castle, Saladin's campaigns in the Holy Land came to a halt.

The Knights Templar (France and England, red cross on white) were frequently at odds with the other two Catholic military orders in the Holy Land, the Knights Hospitaller (Rhodes and Malta, white cross on red), and the Teutonic Knights (Germany and Italy, black cross on white). Decades of internecine feuds weakened the competing Knights' positions, both politically and militarily.

The peace was constantly threatened by Raynald de Châtillon, who controlled the caravan routes between Egypt and Syria. He was the only Christian noble to pursue a purely offensive policy against the Muslims, plundering peaceful Muslim caravans on land with his army, and with a fleet of five ships on the Red Sea. His armies also massacred Muslim pilgrims on their way to Mecca, enraging Saladin.

After Raynald attacked a Muslim caravan in 1186, claiming that the truce between Saladin and Baldwin did not bind him, Saladin proclaimed a jihad against the Kingdom of Jerusalem, vowing to personally behead Raynald for breaking the truce.

In 1187, Saladin destroyed Raynald's army in the Battle of Hattin. Raynald was captured on the battlefield, and Saladin made good on his vow, saying, "It is not the wont of kings to kill kings, but that man had transgressed all bounds, and therefore did I treat him thus. This man was only killed because of his maleficence and perfidy." Guy de Lusignan, made King of Jerusalem the year before, had joined forces with Raynald. He was taken captive by Saladin and held prisoner until 1189.

After ordering the beheading of 200 captured Templar and Hospitaller Knights, Saladin laid siege to Jerusalem. The city was valiantly defended by Balian de Ibelin (1143–1193), but fell in ten days. After collecting a large ransom, Saladin permitted an orderly departure of the city's survivors. Holding back his troops, he prevented the massacre of civilians that had occurred when the First Crusaders captured Jerusalem in 1099.

In 1189, King Richard the Lionheart of England led the Third Crusade. He was joined by King Philip II of France and Guy de Lusignan. Failing to regain Jerusalem, the crusade ended in 1192 after reaching an uneasy truce with Saladin. Jerusalem did not return to Western control until 1917, when the British captured it from the Ottoman Turks in World War I. Today, peace in the Kingdom of Heaven remains elusive.

The Film's Artistic License:

Godfrey de Ibelin, cast as Balian's biological father, is a purely fictional character created for the movie. Balian's actual father was Barisan de Ibelin, a knight in service to the Count of Jaffa. Ibelin was a crusader castle, located between Jaffa and Ascalon, built in 1141 by King Fulk of Jerusalem, as a gift to Barisan.

The Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem was a crusader state established in the Southern Levant in 1099 after the First Crusade. After the fall of Jerusalem, the kingdom was ruled from Acre (today a Mediterranean port on the northern coast of Israel). Acre was destroyed in 1291 by the Mamluks (Muslim slave soldiers).

Balian de Ibelin (aka Barisan the Second) was a nobleman of legitimate parentage, not a blacksmith. One of five children, he married the widow Maria Comnena, who had been the second wife of King Amalric the First of Jerusalem, and was the mother of Queen Isabella of Jerusalem. Maria bore Balian at least four children, who lived into adulthood. She did not live in France, nor did she commit suicide.

In 1192, Balian commanded the rearguard of King Richard's army at the Battle of Jaffa. Later, he helped negotiate the Treaty of Ramla between Richard and Saladin, ending the Third Crusade. While Ibelin remained under Saladin's control, many other sites along the coast were allowed to remain in Christian hands. After King Richard departed, Saladin compensated Balian with the castle of Caymont and five other nearby sites, all outside Acre.

Sibylla, sister of King Baldwin IV, was the Countess of Jaffa and Ascalon. As the wife of Guy de Lusignan, she became the Queen of Jerusalem in 1186. She died at the age of 30 during the Siege of Acre in 1190. She did not have an affair with Balian de Ibelin, nor did she go with him to France after the fall of Jerusalem in 1187. Balian was actually joined by his wife and children in Tripoli.

Knight Templar, Guy de Lusignan, while serving as Regent to the King, overlooked Raynald de Châtillon's misdeeds. Guy became King of Jerusalem in 1186, by right of his marriage to the widowed Princess Sibylla. Sibylla had a son, named Baldwin, from her first marriage. Guy and Sibylla remained loyal to each other throughout the course of their marriage, and had two daughters. Guy de Lusignan remained King of Jerusalem until 1192, ruling from Acre after his release by Saladin. He died in 1194 while ruling from Cyprus.

Baldwin IV deposed Guy as Regent in 1183, and had Sibylla's son crowned as his co-king, Baldwin V. When Baldwin IV died in 1185, Baldwin V ruled until his own death the following year, apparently not poisoned nor diagnosed with leprosy.

The vast majority of the special features is in DVD format (480p) because there's just so much of it. A 2 and a half hour documentary on the making of it, along with dozens and dozens of featurettes ranging from 5 to 40 minutes each, all just on the 2nd disc. The 1st disc has the film encoded 3 separate times, to include the Theatrical Cut, Director's Cut, and the Roadshow Edition, which is identical to the Director's Cut, just with an overture and intermission. There's also 3 whole commentary tracks for the Roadshow edition, and 2 visual factoid tracks, 1 for the Director's Cut and 1 for the Theatrical Cut.

The movie itself is great and all but this massive load of special features is phenomenal. Almost literally a case of "they don't make them like this anymore" because short of the Lord of the Rings series I cannot think of any popular major studio home media release where the special features are more than twice as long as the film itself.

Maybe it's because I remembered watching this with my dad. Maybe it's because the movie actually is a good movie. Maybe it's both. Either way, I bought the DVD when it first came out and watched it with my dad. We both liked ot. Well, we loved it. At the end, he thanked me for buying it for him. I didn't, but I also didn't argue with him.

I actually like the theatrical release ok but due to my interest in the time period and wanting a better experience I decided to give the directors cut a try.

Bottom line I was not disappointed. This version gives the characters in the movie the depth and heart that is lacking in the original. Just so much better if your into character development.
