The Death of Robin Hood

“The Death of Robin Hood depicts the ageing outlaw's fragile path to redemption.”

“Jackman is a towering presence as the world-weary outlaw who has seen too many things no one should have. Sarnoski, who has also written the film based on the 17th-century ballad, Robin Hood's Death, has used the bare bones of the story to look at the truth behind the legend. The incessant grimness has a terrible beauty and moves inexorably to a state of grace where we heave a sigh of relief as Robin Hood gets his hard-won peace.”
