The Last Duel IN CINEMAS 15 OCTOBER Director Ridley Scott / Starring Jodie Comer, Matt Damon, Adam Driver / Genre Drama, History Ridley Scott’s historical epic unravels long-held assumptions about France’s last sanctioned duel between Jean de Carrouges and Jacques Le Gris, two friends turned bitter rivals. Carrouges is a respected knight and Le Gris is a Norman squire and one of the most admired nobles in court. When Carrouges’ wife, Marguerite, is viciously assaulted by Le Gris, a charge he denies, she steps forward to accuse her attacker in an act of bravery and defiance that puts her life in jeopardy. The ensuing trial by combat, a gruelling duel to the death, places the fate of all three in God’s hands.
