Year in review: The 25 best films of 2021
9. "The Last Duel"
Between the studio and cultural scolds (who couldn’t be bothered to watch the movie first), it’s hard to remember the last time a film got as bum of a rap as “The Last Duel” did this fall. Ridley Scott’s “Rashomon”-esque take on the trial-by-combat between a French knight (Matt Damon) and a dashing squire (Adam Driver) who is accused of raping the former’s wife (Jodie Comer) views its men as entitled, barbarous brats and the victim as an unwilling participant in their feud. Comer and screenwriter Nicole Holofcener - who wrote her character’s version of the story, which Scott presents as the truth - inflame the film with righteous dignity. She is determined to speak out but wants nothing to do with this savage tradition. In the end, she gets what she wants and deserves: a life of her own.
