Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from one of the DVDs in my collection (and it’s definitely from a movie, not a TV show). Guess the movie for fun and, well, fun. No prizes, just bragging rights. But hey: one guess per comment — no fair hogging all the guesses.

Is it Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring?
Sleepy Hollow?
Looks like Christopher Eccleston’s horse’s nose in The Seeker to me.
Aww, Sarah stole my guess (FOTR). :)
My guess is the same as Jurgan’s: Sleepy Hollow
Were we right?
The Thirteenth Warrior
But of course…The Black Stallion.;-)
Doh!! I was thinking Sleepy Hollow too.
Cold, cold, cold.
The Thirteenth Warrior
Kingdom of Heaven?
It probably isn’t what I’m about to guess (which really is a long shot)
But – Neverending Story?
The Duellists?
The Illusionist?
Elizabeth?
The Princess Bride?
Her Majesty, Mrs. Brown (or just Mrs. Brown as it was called in the US)?
Ang Lee’s Sense and Sensibility?
Willow
Marie Antoinette
Still very cold.
Hints: It is a purely historical movie, with no hints of fantasy or magic or anything like that. But you need to go back further in time than *Kingdom of Heaven* or *The Thirteenth Warrior.*
Gladiator
Tess.
Alexander
The Mask of Zorro
Oops, that would be fantasy, so never mind.
“Braveheart”?
Amadeus.
Dudes:
She said it’s back further in time than “The Thirteenth Warrior.” That would be before the tenth century.
Spartacus?
Ben Hur? (Yes, I can see MaryAnn owning that one…)
King Arthur?
Tristan and Isolde?
bitchen frizzy wins: it’s *Gladiator*
