Ridley Scott’s 'The Last Duel' is an underrated intense meditation on feminism, which, despite a male-dominated perspective, centers on the powerful story of Marguerite de Carrouges.
The film captures the brutality of medieval life while interweaving themes of sexual violence and societal misogyny, presenting a narrative that is both pro-feminist and brutally honest.
By using multiple perspectives, Scott effectively reveals the truth obscured by male narratives, leading to a powerful climax where the true voice of the female protagonist emerges.
Despite the film's male leads, its undeniable feminist message resonates strongly, showcasing Marguerite's story as one of strength and a fight for justice amidst violence.
