The medieval adventure identified by the planner
This is Paul Verhoeven’s 1985 film, also written Flesh+Blood or Flesh and Blood. Martin leads the mercenaries, while Steven is connected to the ruling family and Agnes is caught between opposing groups. The historical setting does not make it a gentle romance: coercion, brutality and shifting loyalties are central to the story. Use the year and Hauer’s lead role to distinguish it from other productions with this common title.
