- Prince Amleth (Alexander Skarsgård) abandons his quest to avenge his father and boards a vessel to the Orkney Islands with his lover, the Slavic sorceress Olga of the Birch Forest (Anya Taylor-Joy). During the voyage, Amleth discovers Olga is pregnant with twins. Remembering the Seeress's Maiden-King prophecy, Amleth concludes his children will never be safe as long as Fjölnir the Brotherless (Claes Bang) lives. Olga tearfully begs Amleth to stay, but the prince dives overboard and swims back to shore, vowing to protect his family.

The Northman is one of my favorite films of recent memory. Robert Eggers’ directing style, Anya Taylor Joy’s presence, and Alexander Skarsgård’s acting is some of the greatest I’ve seen out of a film made last year. And Eggers himself is also one of my new favorite film directors with his artistic vision.
Can’t wait to see his take on Nosferatu! ❤️
Not to mention the level of unapologetic appreciation for the past and the different customs of the era even things that may repulse modern viewers.
I'm glad Eggers picked actors that look like they belong in the time period.
"There's too many white peepoh in a movie about a time and place that had 99.9% white peepoh."

"okay can you cite a source for that?"
"yeah *pulls out dirty bong*"
@@user-yp7hq5yp1x I already know about this there's a reason why lots of Icelanders have Celtic ancestry
@@user-yp7hq5yp1x "multiracial" lmao. in middle age europe, that word means germanic, celtic, slavic i.e. european people. not african, arab, indian, chinese and filipino as netflix would have wanted
@@Mario-us7ds I had another comment, at least I think I did, citing the article and clarifying my point which is essentially yours as well. But since it's disappeared I'll just delete it to avoid confusion.
Anya is such a Powerhouse
I didn't expect to enjoy the film but was surprised how enjoyable and then I realised it was the inspiration for both Hamlet and Lion King.
Olga is most definitely a ride or die woman
I was blown away by this movie. There is nothing like this.
A warrior king and a good witch now that’s dope
Such a powerful film! These are my people !
Anya definitely went full VVitch here
Just discovered this movie and its incredible!
Great film, too bad the dudebros just wanted an action movie
That's their fault. They marketed it as the next Gladiator.
@@jamesdrake3651 also but it’s Eggers lol
What are you talking about ? Most dude bros loved this movie . I personally blame the the marketing for making this look like a sword and sorcery epic when in reality it's a slasher film posing as a sword & sorcery film .
@@bosniankumquat1835 you might wanna look up the meaning of a slasher movie
Chris Finch the best ships captain I know, certainly the best captain you know.
such beautiful humans the North produces
Princess Peach!
Beth Harmon
Amleth The Barbarian.
Anya Taylor joy❤
Why is the daughter wearing royal clothes and the son not? Will she be the leader of the dynasty?
Yes that’s the idea. The seeress mentions that a maiden-king is coming. Olga of Kiev
Amlet is the father of Rurik?
Unfortunately, the actor playing Amleth bellyflopped and drowned. You’re witnessing a stunt double at the end of the video. Tragically, it would have been his final scene in the film before shooting was over. He is survived by his four wives and 24 children.
Hahahah 24 children
❤
So this is where thomasin went
Of course they gavve her an unrealistic blonde hair,not even adults have that color unless they're albinos🙄
You have never been to Scandinavia and it shows. Platinum blonde hair exists there even though it is vanishingly rare compared to black or dark brown in the human population
She doesn’t look good with it because she isn’t from that place
@@namedrop721 gold hair like she had in the vvitch yes but not platinum,besides her eyes are brown so now
Dunno why they couldn't just made her a brunette,she looks way better that way
Literally not true, i knew somone with the same hair (although they were paler than anya)
your ignorance is astonishing.
Her bleached blonde hair ruined the movie.
It really is distracting and the only negative in the film. They paid such close attention to detail to make everything look realistic, raw and lived in, and true to the time period. Anya looks like a brunette with bleached hair, not just her roots, but her brows and her complexion are that of a brunette. It's jarring since women back then did not bleach their hair, so it takes me out of the story for a moment whenever the camera pans to her. Even her eyes are so dark, and while a blonde can have brown eyes, it just contributes to making her pale hair look out of place with her face. The same can be said for Nicole Kidman not having any gray hair, but that is not nearly as noticeable. Anya did a great job with her acting, but they should have cast someone who was, or could pass, for a natural blonde.
@@ad9899 Some girls do have flaxen white-hair, and didn't they have hair dye back then from vegetable-ash and lye compounds etc? It wasn't unheard of but usually more a thing in the Med countries of those times.
Women would often bleach their hair in that period, both for fashion (very blond hair was seen as attractive) and to keep out lice.
''It's jarring since women back then did not bleach their hair''
I love when people are so adamant about something they don't know. We have archeological and historiographical evidence that norse women and men bleached their hair...
@@Malekith227 with what?
First comment
This has to be one of the worse movies I've ever seen, what was Nicole Kidman thinking
:0
You're definitely alone on this.
