Starring Disney Channel star Julio Peña in the lead, The Captive is an expensive period piece that follows Cervantes' efforts to develop his skills as a storyteller, execute a daring prison escape and (maybe?) fall in lust/love with The Bey, Hasán Bajá (Alessandro Borghi). While we agree on the interesting way that religion (both Christianity and Islam) are portrayed in the narrative, Conrad and Joe differ in our readings of Cervantes' sexuality and the way the film ends. Which way do you folks land? Hosted on Acast.
