“Robin Hood”
** | Russell Crowe is the title character, a warrior just back from fighting in the Third Crusade. Now Richard the Lionheart is dead, and Robin is essentially an unemployed mercenary. This story is a prequel. It takes place entirely before Robin got to be a folk hero. Robin Hood raises, arms and fields an army to repel a French army as it lands on an English beach. Marion (Cate Blanchett) is not a maid but a widow, and not a merry one although she plays the role with great class and breeding. PG-13. 2 hurs, 11 minutes. Roger Ebert. Chicago Sun-Times
“The Secret in Their Eyes”
**** | Benjamin (Ricardo Darin) and Irene (Soledad Villamil) meet after several years. She is a judge. He is a retired criminal investigator. Twenty-five years ago, they were involved in a brutal case of rape and murder. Now he tells Irene that on his own time he wants to write about the case. The film reassembles the strands of two stories, the murder case and the unfinished emotions between Benjamin and Irene. R. 2 hours, 36 minutes. Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
