Having watched all the available episodes of Kurt Sutter's series 'The Bastard Executioner'; I must own that I am truly appalled. Firstly the action scenes look - as others have noted - like the actors are LARPing and the general thrust of the action scenes are just well... a form of snuff porn.
If Sutter wanted to look at how to get an action sequence right he either has to go realistic (for example 'Vikings' and 'Rome') or heavily stylized (for example '300' and 'Spartacus') not something that looks so cheesy that it could have come from a 1960s horror movie.
Secondly we are quickly introduced in the hour and a half pilot episode to an a-historical black (and his wife of similar origin [who is promptly killed off]) in the middle of rural Wales in the early fourteenth century.
Naturally enough he is one of the 'heroes' of the series and like the film it was clearly inspired by 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves' with the nominal black styled to be a Moor. Although we learn in the pilot episode that he has 'converted to Christianity'; it is revealed in the fourth episode that he is still a Muslim, carries out his required prayers five times a day and carries a Qu'ran around in his jerkin. Unlike the moor who is portrayed in 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves'; this moor is not even slightly plausible and even rather stupidly named as 'Berber the Moor' (played by the rather wooden Danny Sapani). (1)
After all how on earth does anyone who lived in the same village as 'Berber' not know that he was praying to Allah five times a day and wandering round with a Qu'ran in her jerkin?
If they did know then in those ultra-Christian times - with their healthy intolerance for jews and Muslims - one wonders why he wasn't simply killed by the many zealous Christians that abounded as was the case only a few years before the events in the anger directed at the jews by the people of England that lead to their expulsion in 1290 A.D.
The presence of 'Berber' as a character is just an excuse to imply that Western societies have always been multiracial, which is, of course, complete historical cobblers. When you add to that the figures of authority - notably the sheriff of Ventrishire (who is portrayed as a homicidal misogynistic lunatic) and his chamberlain (portaged as a ruthless and repressed homosexual) - are white men; it suggests what this series is: race hate against whites (and particularly white men).
It comes as little surprise to note that Sutter's jewish wife Katey Sagal plays a starring role as a heroine ('Annora of the Alders') in the series. (2) That said her character of a Slavonic witch is appropriate - although completely a-historical - in the sense that she looks - like many a jewess who is getting older - like a natural witch.
Aside from that 'The Bastard Executioner' was produced by Imagine Entertainment, which was co-founded by Brian Grazier (who is jewish) and Ron Howard (who isn't). While its two presidents (Michael Rosenberg and Kim Roth) are jewish. (3)
It doesn't take long to find jews behind vicious anti-white propaganda now: does it?
