Marco Polo (1982–1983)
10/10
A rare masterpiece of an epic size
29 October 2019
I watched it twice - on TV and on DVD bought on a flee market. This is truly a masterpiece of a serious movie-making. The production succeeds in resurrecting a 13th century saga (last breath of the Crusades) of a young idealistic beautiful man going East in search of adventure. This epic mini-series is populated by realistic colorful personalities played by first-class actors travelling agsinst the backdrop of crusader castles, nomadic tents and Chinese pagodas. Strongly recommended for all who travel to the East in search of soul and meterial well-being. A Christian theme is added as an extra delicate flavor.
