The
Advocate
Buy New: $8.99
The Advocate is an intriguing medieval court drama set in the
days when humans and animals were both known to contain the devil.
Courtois, an educated lawyer (Colin Firth), leaves the big city to
find peace in the countryside but finds murderous acts holding the
small hamlet in fear. To the town folk, Courtois's intelligence is
nearly as mysterious as witchcraft, which is all the talk of the
day. Since we rarely see a movie set in this time period, it
intrigues but doesn't teach beyond its initial premise: animals can
go on trial. The film is supported by some wonderful character
actors, including Ian Holm as a priest with very liberal views and
Nicol Williamson as the unofficial king. Lots of naughtiness mostly
played for laughs makes this the first thinking person's ribald
classic. --Doug Thomas. Colin Firth, Iam Holm, Donald Pleasance,
Nicol Williamson.
