Comment
In 14th century Europe, Sean Connery and his young assistant Christian Slater investigate a series of suspisious deaths in an isolated monastry. As they investigate they uncover a conspiracy of silence. This is an effective medieval who-dun-it that is well cast and evokes the feel of a medieval monastry and raises some of the theologigal issues of the period..
