"1492: The Conquest of Paradise" is a historical drama film directed by Ridley Scott, released in 1992. The movie tells the story of Christopher Columbus's journey to the New World, backed by the Catholic Monarchs of Spain. It stars Gérard Depardieu as Columbus, alongside Sean Connery, which might be a confusion since Sean Connery did narrate a documentary series but wasn't in this film. The film explores themes of ambition, vision, and the consequences of exploration.
O filme narra vinte anos da vida de Colombo, começando com sua luta para convencer a Coroa Espanhola a financiar uma expedição para chegar à Índia navegando para o Oeste. Após obter o apoio da Rainha Isabel I, ele parte com três navios e acaba descobrindo as ilhas das Bahamas, acreditando ter chegado à Ásia.
You can buy a physical copy of the movie from online retailers like Amazon or in-store at media shops.
