a caretaker in a school for fencers. Sounds shockingly bad but surprissingly brilliant. Eric Roberts at his absolute best but the star of the film is the caretaker, F Murray Abraham

I watched this movie with the hopes that it would that actually present fencing realistically and without all the snobs with whom it so often seems to be associated. Silly me. While it is more realistic than other movies I've seen involving fencing, it's stll a far cry from the real thing. The fencing resembles a wierd cross of the three weapons (foil, epee and saber), and it is still presented as dangerous and painful. Gee, maybe the characters would get hurt less often if they'd stop fencing without masks or jackets. The movie also failed to give me any likeable characters. The main guy, played by F. Murray Abraham (cool name at least), while being the most likeable, is so mysterious in the first two acts that I never connected with him, and when his secret is finally revealed, I really didn't care who won in the final duel-to-the-death (Of course! People have duels to the death in fencing! It's part of the glamor.). :(

A good story played well by great actors makes this unknown film one that deserves more recognition.

Worst story plot ever, fencing rather impressive

Cutting edge drama is delivered in this film about a new janitor at a top fencing school with a mysterious background who turns out to be a very talented swordsman in his own right.
