Flеsh Аnd Вlооd / Плoть И Kpoвь (1985 Paul Verhoeven) Blu Ray

Flesh and Blood is a 1985 romantic historical adventure film directed by Paul Verhoeven, and starring Rutger Hauer, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tom Burlinson, Susan Tyrrell, Ronald Lacey, Bruno Kirby and Jack Thompson. The script was written by Verhoeven and Gerard Soeteman. The story is set in the year 1501 in Italy, during the early modern period, and follows two warring groups of mercenaries and their longstanding quarrel. The script is partly based on unused material for the Dutch TV series Floris, which was the debut for Verhoeven, Soeteman and Hauer. The film, originally titled God’s Own Butchers, was also known as The Rose and the Sword on early VHS releases. It was Verhoeven’s first English-language film. The film was a huge box office flop, only managing to make back US$100,000 out of its estimated US$6.5 million budget.
