Attempting to evade the turmoil of France's Hundred Years' War, Parisian student Heron of Foix (Assaf Dayan) decides to journey to the sea. En route, he meets the pretty aristocrat Lady Claudia (Anjelica Huston), and the couple begin a romance amid the intense conflict. As the struggle between peasants and noblemen rages on, Heron and Claudia take shelter at a monastery -- but even their newfound love can't completely keep the horrors of war at bay.

Pauline Kael New Yorker A Walk With Love and Death has a feeling to it, and though it doesn’t quite come to enough, it has an unusual integrity of vision. Feb 5, 2024 Full Review Scott Tobias The Dissolve Not so much A Walk with Love and Death as it is a casual stroll. Rated: 2.5/5 Jan 13, 2014 Full Review Variety Staff Variety Director John Huston tells his story [from a novel by Hans Koningsberger] unhurriedly, lingering over details of style and torture with equal unsparing lenses.

Audience Member an unusual choice for director john huston starring his daughter Anjelica. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This film has gotten a bad rap, but it's actually rather lovely. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting, I'll give it that. Is it a political film with an apolitical stance, or is it vice-versa, or is it neither? Am I looking at this thing the wrong way? Odds are I am, but there's enough in there to chew on for the time being. I think I'll have to revisit it at some stage, perhaps when I've seen more of Huston's stuff. The acting is a little uneven, but it looks nice and purdy - and the score is good, too. An unusual flick, that's for sure. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Humble, spiritual and beautiful. A very underrated film, that wishes to be discovered again. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member "a great glittering plain of water..." Anjelica, je t'aime! Grand flim Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
